Damper mounts are pretty easy to make with RTV Silicone if there is
enough room around the fan - unscrew it, suspend it, put globs of the
RTV to support it, then let it thoroughly set before removing the
temporary suspenders.
Not recommended while under warranty. Also might not withstand

Also, many fans designed for computer use are supplied with dampers or
shock mounts. Two that I particularly like because they are high
quality and very quiet are Cougar and Noctua. The latter is about
twice the cost of the former, both are excellent, the Noctua lasts
longer.

Or you could buy four silicon fan screw replacers from Newegg for 5 bucks.
They also oop out without a trace.

To me, the fan in the 3000 is very noisy and you have to deal with the
modular RJ45 mic plug. It's worth it to me to have the 5000.

To all,
With all of this discussion about the 3000 and 5000, it is apparent that
the 5000 has lots more bells and whistles than the 3000. But, I need
to ask if the 5000 can hear more or send better or clearer than the 3000
in the 1.8 to 30 MHz range for a given antenna.

Since I do not have any close by stations, I guess I will stick with my
3000 and spend the money on another amplifier.

As a happy owner of a 5000 I am now seriously considering (hey who am I
kidding, I've already talked myself into it!) a 3000 for portable work.
Can those of you who have actually used both (like Tim) give me any
comparison of operating experience?
Thanks 73
I have both (proudly) but haven't used the 3000 enough to get a total
feel for it but
The 5000 definitely has a quieter rx. I do not know if you can really
tell the 5000 is more sensitive (although you know it is) but I can
tell its quieter.
