Hi All

Gary is wondering about a heatsink fan for the Jupiter to run digital modes.
I use my Pegasus, same heatsink, on PSK-31 at 30 watts with out a fan.  The
Peggy does not get hot, or even warm.  Try the mode first and if the Jupiter
gets too warm for you then just place a little fan behind the heatsink.  You
don't have to mount the fan on the heat sink.
