On mine, the fan comes on briefly when the power supply is first turned on and then turns off.  It comes back on again if it starts to get hot.  I just confirmed that by transmitting 100W into a dummy load for 2 minutes.

Are the fans on those power supplies running? Both of those power supplies have 
fans on the back.

Thanks everyone for your quick responses.  So far, none of the suggested 
solutions have worked, so I hooked the KPA100 up to a different power supply, 
an Alinco DM-330MV, and I had the same whirling noise, only not quite as loud.

This leads me to believe that something in the KPA100 is causing some kind of 
line noise to the power supply.  Is there a fix for this?  If not, the noise 
doesn't really bother me, but is this noise affecting my signal when I TX?  
That is my real concern and I should have made that clearer in my first email.
Thanks,Jim W7JHR
