Did you do the little mod that is explained on the web site? You need to
clip a pin off one of the ic's in the plex, and the thermal problems will
go away. (pin 5, U12)  There is even a nice little picture there showing
how to do it. Newer units should have this done at the factory before they
ship.

Sorry, I guess that one was my fault. My punishment is to explain how to
fix it for the rest of my life...:-)
