Somewhere in the bowels of the internet you should be able to find the OEM make and model. If not, I can look on one of mine tomorrow. It's a 19 CFM fan, IIRC. I have a box full of the Papst 32 CFM version, but those are way too noisy for the average ham shack (nice upgrade for the DL-1000 though...). 73 -Jim NU0C -- The universe we're in will reach absolute zero in three hours.

Re: [Drakelist] Drake FA-7 (fan)
Hi Bill, Most any 110V fan that fits the hole pattern will work. Most are a bit faster and noisier than the FA-7 fan but I used to work with broadcast transmitters so fan nose never bothered me. There are 12V fans available that also fit the hole pattern but they don't seem to move as much air as the line voltage units. Whatever fan you install, it should be mounted so that it blows out from the power supply. Also, the regular fans can be had at hamfests for around $5.00, sometimes even less. You will usually pay big bucks for an FA-7. 73, John, W4AWM In a message dated 6/21/2015 9:50:13 P.M.
