K2XT here. Greetings, We are installing K8DM's brand new KPA1500 here at my qth today replacing a KPA500. He runs the station remotely from VA; my QTH is in NJ. (I host the station for him).
So, it is powered up and running. When not in use it appears as if (according to the manual) it needs to generate a small voltage/current to the rf deck to allow it to function. No problem, that makes sense. The problem is, there is a fan running in the power supply, and it is annoying! The remote station is in a spare bedroom and visiting guests will have to endure this noise. Plus, I'd like the equipment to go off when it is turned off. I don't want a fan running 24/365. Does the PS really generate that much heat that it needs a fan? This is not acceptable. Wayne, surely you didn't design it this way. Surely there is an option we set somewhere to disable the fan. What say, anyone?
