[Elecraft] K3 SHUTDOWN.

[Mark n2qt]

I run a 5inch sized 24V fan powered from 12 volts or so during 
RTTY contests.  I watch the PA temperature, but don't normally 
see it going above the upper 40's no matter how hard I push it 
at the 100 watt level.  

The added fan blows in through the top vents as the normal fans 
pull air out.   With rubber feet on the fan, and a screen to keep 
wires and fingers out, it works really well for me.

In the end, it is a THERMAL problem.
