- For long key down sessions TenTec recommends a fan for cooling the heatsink. Has anyone ever seen a temp controlled fan for sale that clips onto the heatsink? I want to run RTTY and thought it would

- The 12 V computer fans work fine for this purpose. They are available from a lot of mail order places and can also be found at hamfests. I think that MCM Elecronics sells a temperature sensing one. I

- Ken, I have two large muffin fans (115-vac type) mounted in a cutout in a shelf above the back of my Omni VI+. I can turn them on with toggle switches. In a contest, I have them on all the time. When

- I took a 12vdc fan from a PC power supply and run it off the 12vdc out of the Omni VI+. Fan comes on when the rig is turned on. Heat sinks were getting hot just running 40wpm CW. Fan does the trick.

- Back in the old Heathkit and Drake days I simply used a small muffin fan placed on top of the chassis over the transmitter tubes to help exhaust some of the heat. Such fans are almost noiseless. I wo

- I also use a PC power supply fan running off the 12 vdc phono socket on the back of my Omni VI. I added a couple of 100 ohm resistors in parallel in the line to slow the fan slightly, which really cu

- I would think that as small as these fans are, they wouldn't disapate as much heat if connected to the heat sink. Of course maybe these fans are really amazing. I maybe thinking of the really small s

- Hi, Scott-- It takes very little airflow over the heatsink of a Ten-Tec to keep it really cool in the most adverse conditions. A small 12 volt DC fan from a discarded computer power supply will do a

- I think most TT rigs are air deprived. The Omni 6's I had needed some air inside badly. When receiving, it was stable but after sending for a few hours at high speed, the oscillators would drift due

- It seems curious that you need to ventilate the cabinet to control drift. My Icom IC-765 (sorry to be using bad words here!) with its internal switching power supply is almost completely sealed with

- The Omni series has oscillators which are xtal controlled while the Icom uses pll technology. Each band in the Omni requires a xtal to provide frequencies for the first mixer and there is a 9mhz osc
