Before mine arrived a few weeks ago I put exactly that question to Elecraft
Support. The reply was that there would be no problem mounting the PS
vertically, so long as the air clearances are observed for the air flow -- I
believe it's three inches at the top and at the rear, but the manual is pretty
clear on that. I've mounted mine that way. When sitting on its side the
On-Off switch is conveniently near the top-rear edge. Works FB.

Hi All,
My KPA-1500 arrived over the weekend and I've not gotten a chance yet to
set it
up. In looking at both the amp and the power supply I noticed both have
carrying
handles and rubber feet. Are these rubber feet just there for transporting
the
untis, or can the power supply actually be run vertically with equal
efficiency
and cooling as it would be horizontally? If so, that would fit my operating
desk
perfectly.

Thanks in advance.
