Can they be ok with just 1 fan?
@stonefacedgrasshopper2200Ай бұрын
@rodlink6258 If you put it in as a base radio on a bench and are not long-winded talking on them, you can go without a fan. But if you are doing a lot of sideband talking or mounting it in a vehicle, I would go with dual fans. They come set up to run dual fans. If you want a long life from the radio, I would spend the money for the fans instead of the repairs that will come later. 73s.

I find the rf-gain meter a poor choice from President. They should have made it a modulation-meter or swr so you dont have to look at a full meter the whole time Other than that, ofcuz it should have been a base radio, like the first Washington, but thats also my opinion. Tnx for the test.
