Well, I received my first CTC187 with a cooling fan today. The customer said
that the set had never been worked on. The tuner had not ever been soldered,
go figure.

We have done about 4 RCA CTC187 sets with hot H.out heat sinks-mod with
60mm small computer size 12V cooling fan--they are still working-no call
backs.  I do the fan trick now everytime I get an RCA CTC187 or any RCA
that has heat sink getting hotter than normal. Have not tried this trick
with Sonys with hot power chip, it should work, just find a 12V source
that can handle extra load-and one that comes on with power on sw.  Just
tell customer it is the latest modification.  Fans can be found cheap on
E-bay.
P.S. All parts used in repair of the RCAs are top grade, no knock-offs.
