The fan is there to keep the rig cool when you're running power. It's quite normal for it to run when you transmit for a while. It does NOT indicate a problem, it indicates completely normal operation. I'm a member of a very large contest club with probably close to 100 K3s in the club. I've never heard of a problem with a K3 overheating in any destructive way. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
