Thanks for all the comments on the KPA500 Clicks. Looks like I'm not the
only one that has noticed it. I guess I won't worry about it.
I have had the AMP for a few months now and have been very satisfied
with it so far.
Thanks again!

During a couple recent RTTY contest I have noticed that my KPA500 is
making a noise. It kind of sounds like a relay clicking in and out.
When I first noticed it I thought it was a fan relay or something to
do with the fan. But after hearing this longer it seems to be related
to the temp. It clicks in an out around the temps of 62C and 56C. It
kind or reminds me of an old radiator warming up and cooling off. I
took the cover off yesterday and checked the nut that holds the
transformer in place. I thought maybe that spring washer might be a
little loose but it wasn't.
Anyone else ever notice this? Hopefully it is not a serious problem.
Thanks
