9M4RBK finally operational.

Repeater 9M4RBK at Laban Rata Mount Kinabalu finally operational. This is the best repeater of all cause it situated at 3100m above sea level and can cover up to 95% of Sabah Area regardless of shadow area.

From Lahad Datu just 5watt RF power can easily trigger and hold it. RF Strength receive from it hold steadily between S5 to S7

Big thank you for the maintenance team.

73 De 9M6WST

My idea to reduce IC-706MK2G's heating.

Below is some pictures to share with HAM operators who own an IC-706MK2G. As I found out that this radio set easily get heat up and finally hot after standby or operating for just an hour. Well I too try to get in touch with 9W2RZL who also own one. His 706 also will warm up and get hot after on air.
The internal cooling FAN works only when we are transmitting. Hope my idea helps and indeed it solves my problem by stopping my 706 being heat up.

I use two 60mm cooling fan that usually used for cooling video processors or CPUs. Well its just fit nice to the thickness of the set. Fit nicely at both side of the set but just using paper clip after shaping it to hold the fan and screwed it to the two screw holds located at both side of the radio.
