[Elecraft] PA Fan

[Mike Harris]

G'day all,

Yes, I too am interested in this.  Under what circumstances does it
automatically come on "slow"?

I have been running a QRSs beacon on 40 metres,  Ran for 15 nights for 10
hours  per night.  Output was set to 11W.  Fan only ever ran on high with
the heatsink at 46C.  The beacon was used to study the grey line path
between the Falklands and UK, some interesting results.

When my mod bits eventually arrive and #1400 is in bits I will remove the
cover from the PA and have a good look to see if anything is showing signs
of stress.  Will report.

Regards,
