I'm trying to avoid opening it up as it introduces dust. I haven't had any issues with the new drivers however I use Nebulosity so don't need the ascom driver.

On the old 8 the nose piece seals the camera. I don't know about the new models. Yes it's the external heatbox. For the 9 there are two SS dessicant plugs at the back. I always store both cameras opened in sealed cases with heatboxes. I bought some alu dessicant boxes on ebay and drilled the sides so I can empty/reload the balls. I microwave them 10s and they turn blue straight away then put them back in the plugs. I won't start about the drivers as I have nothing nice to say.
