Dan:
Check to see that the temperature setting is correct. Go to the CAL
TPA menu item. When the TPA is underlined, hold the MENU button for a
short bit and let it up. The temperature setting will now be
displayed. When the rig has been off for a long while, it ought to
read room temperature (in C). If not, reset it by turning the tuning
knob. I believe it has been reported that some people have found this
setting to have altered to its highest reading, causing the fan to run
all the time. I have no idea why it should change, but the gremlins of
the world are always with us.

Just had a nice CW qso at 80w with a fellow in Ca, but now the fan on
my
K2 won't stop running. The rig is completely cool, but yet the fan
keeps running on high. When I started the QSO it was off. Now even
after the rig shut off for a 1/2 hour, when I turn it back on, the fan
comes on as well. In the control settings with PA menu, hitting
display
shows Fan Hi, Fan Hi/LO and Fan Nor, switching between these settings
makes no difference at all, the fan keeps going at a high and noisy
speed. Any ideas where to check for problems?
I don't recall what circuit/device triggers the fan to run. Even if I
run in QRP mode, with the PA OFF, the fan is still running on high....
Thx
