A bit off topic but...
I am thinking of revamping my station's power supply setup.
I have an Orion, Omni VII, 2 dual band uhf/vhf rigs and assorted item that
use 13.8 vdc for running and/or charging.
I currently have 2-Astron RS-35M and 1 20 amp Astron power supplies.
I also am running a 3000 watt ups with a ton of backup batteries....this
feeds just about everything in the shack.
What I am thinking of doing is eliminating the above Astrons, getting a 50
amp plus power strip to fire the station and various sundires, or getting a
series of switching power supplies.
Qth is very quiet on man made noise.
I am aiming for efficiency, with no rfi from power supply setups, from what
I have read, the switchers are very efficient, but still generate a bit of
rf hash....I might be wrong on this.
Any suggestions or observations?
Thanks in advance de Denton, WB7TDG
