I do a bit of rag chewing on my K2 with my KAP100/KAT 100 in EC2 enclosure.
With only two participants rag chewing the grilles of the KPA100 on the top of the EC2 enclosure tend to get hot.
They are more than luke warm to the touch after half an hour of rag chewing running 100 watts.
Will I get a warning on the display,- and are there any way of controlling the built-in fan – running or not running – from the front panel of the K2
Any further precautions besides tightening up the screws of the PA transistors.?
OZ5RB, Hans
