"Some are complaing about loud fan noise. Do you have that with yours? I
don't think your review mentioned fan noise as I recall."

I said that you'll know when the fan comes on.  That's the reason I modified 
the unit to keep the fan turning at low speed.  That keeps the PS cool and 
so the fan almost never goes to full speed.  It never goes to full speed 
when just powering the K3.  But when I also power other rigs (I have an 
IC-706MKII and an IC-706MKIIG that I sometimes also have on) along with 
operating the K3, sometimes it will switch to full speed.  But this is very 
rare.
