[Elecraft] kpa1500

[Bob McGraw K4TAX]

My KPA500 displays the temperature in degrees Centigrade.   Just 
remember, small numbers cooler, larger numbers hotter.  Normal room temp 
is about 23 to 25 degrees C.  The fan switches on at 50, steps up at 55, 
steps up at 60 and steps up at 65.........as I recall.  The book says 
maximum temperature must be less than 90 degrees C.   To me, that is all 
one needs to know about Centigrade.

Just for the record:

23 C = 73.4F

25 C  = 77 F

50 C =  122F

55 C = 131F

60 C = 140F

65 C = 149F

90 C = 194F

Otherwise, [C x 9/5] + 32 = F degrees
