There never was an official fan.
I can remember using a 120V muffin fan, slowed down with a huge, honkin'
wire-wound resistor, the first time I used a fan over the finals 25 years
ago. Today, we've got a plethora of 12VDC fans - some with thermistor
control like the one I got at a hamfest for $4. You can run these off a
wall wart or put a little half-wave rectified supply inside the transmitter
or receiver - off the filament supply. The 12V fans typically draw about
250 mA.
Fans over the receiver transformer also help a lot at keeping heat down!
