There is no opening behind the fan. It just blows on the heat sinks molded in the chassis which is cast aluminum. **Q: does this have earphone/recording outlet?** A: This radio has a sterio 3.5mm jack for external speaker. Should work with earphones and recording device **Q: Warranty? mic control no longer works. ptt works, no other buttons respond - just over a month old! junk!?** A: I just saw in a review that the lock feature is on the front of the radio (blue key icon on "LO" button). The review said to press LO and A/B simultaneously. You may also be able to press the blue "F" (function) button then the "LO" button to lock or unlock the radio. I suspect the lock function is engaged on your radio, and to get full mic function back, you need to disable the lock. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great radio *by D***R on December 1, 2025* Great radio very easy to set up and program.
