Yes, Bob, the fan will accelerate during an RTTY contest (or during long transmissions in CW/SSB for that matter...) - this is normal. If you set fan speed to 1 or 2 to start with (instead of NOR), you will notice temperature rise will be substantially reduced - and much slower. Good thing for the final transistors! This, by the way, was also recommended by Eric at Elecraft some time ago.
