During a CW ragchew with a 20 wpm 400 w transmission duration of approximately 5 minutes I was being bothered by amp fan kicking into high gear towards the tailend. So I set the fan to level two; my amp is down under my desk so fan noise is minimal. Now I can enjoy a CW ragchew without the amp fan kicking into jet engine mode. 'Pre-cooling', as it were, works for me.
