[Elecraft] K3 Noisy fans?

[Rob May]

I can't hear my fans at all.  I periodically turn them on from the menu to make sure they are working.  The back of the K3 is just a few inches from the wall so I would expect any sound to be reflected right back to me.  On the other hand the fan on my 746Pro (sitting right next to it) is very loud and annoying when I transmit.  Since I have the K3, that isn't very often.  ;-)
