Great question, I would also like to use one for this purpose. If you're only using one radio it will get little rest. I am sure that it will survive a RTTY contest however I would probably set the fan at a higher continuous speed and live with the fan noise however I wonder how loud this really is. The initial testers claimed that the amp was very quiet. I also wonder if the KPA1500 crackles while cooling down like the KPA500.

Will the KPA 1500 operate, *on all bands at legal limit*, while operating as a "run" station in a RTTY contest? That would be near continuous duty. How loud are the fans when operating in this mode? Thank you in advance for any information.
