Yes, you are correct, David.  That heat sink is so massive, that for SSB, it is probably a little overkill.  I do hope it is pulling air out, not blowing it back in though.  If someone has reversed it, thinking it would be better, you might turn it around so it pulls air out of the cabinet before you start transmitting with it again.

Subject: [drakelist] TR7-A Cooling Fan

I use my TR7-A mostly for short-wave listening, so I've unplugged the cooling fan to cut down on the dirt that might be drawn into the radio. Am I correct in assuming that this fan is only required if I'm transmitting?  Any advice would be appreciated.......73,  David
