- I'd like to hear from anyone who has constructed/ designed/juryrigged, a fan speed controler for the tubes in their amp. I found a couple of squirell cage blowers that I'd like to adapt and control t

- Tektronix was doing this over a decade ago. A thermistor controlled the base current flow through a pass transistor whose emitter drove a DC brushless fan. The hotter the thermistor got, the faster

- I have used a series capacitor to slow the blower speed down. Then place a temperature switch above the tube in the air path that will short out the capacitor when things heat up. 73 Gary K4FMX

- On the FT-101 there was a mod to drop the fan speed on receive. It was a simple resistor to drop the AC voltage to the fan causing more slip and slowing the fan speed. It worked fine. -- Ron
