Anecdotally, I've operated several RTTY contests with a field-test KPA1500 and it just loafed along. I didn't critically examine fan noise. With noise-canceling headphones, I wasn't aware of any fan noise. Operationally, it felt like QRP, Wayne's target environment. 73,Ed W0YK -------- Original message --------From: Mack McCormick <[email protected]> Date: 5/22/18 3:18 AM (GMT-08:00) To: Elecraft Reflector <[email protected]> Subject: [Elecraft] Will the KPA 1500 operate RTTY in "run mode" for 48 hours? I have a complete K line with the KPA 500 currently. I am considering purchasing a KPA 1500. 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.
