Giving her anything hot pink will be met with words not fit for family newsgroups, and possibly the forced removal of a part or parts that’s very near and dear to me. Besides, the racket bugs the heck out of me, too.
And I won’t even get into the amp noise when I’m running FT8 on 6, but that’s to be expected, alas. - pjd From: Morgan Bailey <mbaileyc...@gmail.com> Sent: Saturday, May 23, 2020 2:11 PM To: Peter Dougherty <li...@w2irt.net> Cc: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KPA-1500 power supply fan noise Head to walmart and buy a box of cheap hot pink foam ear plugs that have 30 db noise reduction. Or have her wear earbuds to a new ipod listen to music...sign her up for pandora.

I would like to keep my rig on 6m throughout the day during the Es season. The problem is my 6m antenna is on antenna port 2 on the KPA, which requires the amp to be powered up. I only need to TX when a new grid pops up, but I do like to monitor the band during the day while I'm working. My XYL is working from home, and is in the same room for about 9 or 10 hours a day, and the noise after 10 minutes was too much for her. Any suggestions?
