How noisy is it ? One idea I've had for a long time is to remove the elecraft fan on the rear of K2 and find a hose of the proper diameter, somehow mounting it in a semi-permanent fashon. at the other end of the hose, a box with a big fan that can really blast some serious air through the K2. Put the box on the floor or in the next room so you don't have to hear it.
Any thoughts ?
