[Elecraft] KPA500 on RTTY

[Richard Squire - HB9ANM]

Yes, Bob, the fan will accelerate during an RTTY contest (or during long
transmissions in CW/SSB for that matter...) - this is normal.
If you set fan speed to 1 or 2 to start with (instead of NOR), you will
notice temperature rise will be substantially reduced - and much slower.
Good thing for the final transistors! This, by the way, was also recommended
by Eric at Elecraft some time ago.
