[Elecraft] KPA500 Clicks & Pops

[Bob McGraw K4TAX]

I do run 400 watts or so on digital modes.  Issues are not really noted on SSB or CW modes. 

I've set the Fan Ctr to 2 and 3 and still noted the issue 

Was recently showing my K Line to some hams friends. They commented rather negatively on the point.  

Bob, K4TAX
