REPLY:
EBM-Papst is probably the Rolls Royce of blowers for ham use. I have one
of the 91 CFM units in my HB amp and am very satisfied with it. They are
expensive but worth it, IMO. Mine was about $140 two years ago. You must
purchase a separate start/run capacitor for it, about $10 from
McMaster-Carr.
Newark carries them in the US.
