Does anyone have a suggestion about how to attach a fan to the heatsink on 
the back of a Ten-Tec HF transceiver? 

I have a nifty $6 12VDC PC fan that even comes with a temp sensor - but of course 
it sits at a RT angle to the fins on the heatsink. I don't want to drill holes 
in the heatsink to put in "L" shaped bolts. I tried the XYL hot-glue and it 
loosened after a few days.  Have you thought of some other nifty way to 
attach a fan without damaging the heatsink?
