you are correct!  it pressures the chassis and the air comes up thru the final socket cooling the final very gently. 73 jim-k4dee

I looked at the photos and it is not clear to me what the blower is

t looks like it pressurizes the chassis?

 OK guys - follow this link to W0YVA's web site for pics of the RF
 deck with the blower -
 http://www.isquare.com/personal_pages/globeking500-rfdeck.htm

 looks to me like the output of the squirrel cage is about 1 inch square..

 and - yes - my backup plan is to use a muffin fan mounted on top of
 the RF deck !!
