There's really no reason to be disappointed because the AMP
really holds its value well if you wanted to sell it. The really
good news is the AMP market is fairly saturated meaning there are
a lot of good choices out there.? Perhaps there's an amp out there
that will work the way you need it to. If it were me, and I didn't
get what I expected, I would be selling or asking for a refund.
The amount of money these guys cost is a lot, and imagine there's
buyers remorse out there too.? ? My recommendation is to not
settle, and get what you want and deserve for the money.

Interesting observations all around. I run on 240, so there is no
improvement to be gained there. As my temps rise the fans shift
through the 3 levels, with the last one being very loud indeed.
This is not a quiet amp, even when not in use. Perhaps I will give
FT8 a try just to collect a data point, but I don't really use
that mode at all. I must say I am very disappointed in this amp,
what with the noise levels and the heat problems. I would have
thought that running it at such low levels would have been easy,
but I guess not. Next option is to look into the cooling setup as
it now stands, and what could be done to improve on it.
Thanks again for the information updates.
