Evening gang: Just got home from work and reading my male. I looked at the manual for the XV432 to see how the internal fan is mounted and how it was hooked up. It really doesn't look like much of a task to modify my XV50 and install such a fan.
I contacted sales and was told the vented panels are not available. As much as I hate drilling my own panels ( don't like messing up the paint ) I see very little challenge in copying what Elecraft did with the 432 version. I will wait Don, to hear the results of your tests before doing anything. 73 to all; Jerry N0JRN On 6/3/2010 1:18:45 PM, Eric ([email protected]) wrote: > I have a late-model xv144 with holes in both top and bottom panels, > connected to k3 with milliwatt drive.
