Tom,
a few weeks ago the PA temperature of my K3 #1184 jumped between 32 and
41 degrees Celsius during receive, and the fans went on and off. The
problem went away after dismantling the K3 completely for another
problem and the fan/temp problem has vanished. Maybe some loose
connector had caused the problem. Monitoring the PA temp can be the
first step to solve the problem.

Subject: [Elecraft] Cooling Fans
I am the original owner of K3/100 #969, which still works great.
I?ve noticed that recently the cooling fan comes on occasionally even
if the radio is on, but not in use >>(volume down, no transmitting).
FP temperature shows 41 C, and PA temperature is at 35 C
This is not at objectionable at all, but made me wonder if this was a
cause for concern.
Any ideas?
