After blowing my finals and having a heck of a time finding real replacements, I decided it might be helpful to get a little air in and out of my (tr)usdx radios. I modified the left side and the top with a big hole in hopes that air could come in the side and heat out the top naturally.
Does it help? I have no idea...but I haven't blown anything in well over a year on either my classic or low band (tr)usdx radios, so maybe! It also gives you some options to get power wires out of the radio for power poles or other DC connections (since that built in one is usually flaky).
There are 2 versions of the left side STL, one with the hole for the PA connection and one without. Honestly I can't remember but I think I left that connector out of the build since I never use it, so I closed up the hole on my radios.
