I can confirm that both a friend and I have fitted Noctua fans to our 1,000 series K3's and that they do the job much more quietly. They come with an assortment of connectors and were very easy to fit, but you have to get used to their different colour Hi Hi! They appear to be high quality and we don't regret making the change.
As an aside, I had an Icom 820H that used to shut down because its heatsink overheated during ragchews. I replaced its fan with a Noctua and the problem was solved. Although Noctua is an Austrian Company, the fans are made in Taiwan. At least, it's a change from China Hi! 73 Dave G3TJP ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
