Just go to a dollar store and get a small cheap plastic fan.  For about 3 
bucks I got one about 3" diameter on a little stand with a rotary switch in 
the ac cord.   It's very quiet.  Plug in, turn on, aim at heat sink.   Omni 
VI should be able to sit there and tx a 20 watt carrier all day with it.  
But I don't use mine on the PA heat sink--I use mine on the power supply.   
(I don't operate any 100% duty cycle modes.)   The only problem is, you 
might not be able to find these small fans for sale this time of year unless 
you live in far south Fla., Texas, and Calif.  Maybe someone in Hawaii can 
ship you one : )
