I really can't think of a single negative to a cooling fan other than
the noise from whatever fan you use. I suppose some could say they are
needed since these rigs lasted dozens of years without them, but heat is
the enemy of tubes and all the rest of the works. Really quiet,
inexpensive low voltage fans were not as readily available in the 60's
and 70's as they are today.

Wow, the score is about 15 to 0 in favor of cooling fans. I guess the
guys that gave me the negatives a number of years ago when I owned a
T-4XB aren't a part of this list!!
Thanks for all the comments, and yes, I have a cooling fan and will be
installing it on my newly purchased T-4XC.
