I am still in the process of selling N4SU's radio gear for his XYL. Dave had an RS-35M which he used to power his Omni VI along with some other things. He has a 720 ohm power resistor (15W I think) a

Bill, I have 2 RS-35M power supplies. When they are powered on, they sometimes make quite a kick noise as a result of the surge of current to charge the internal capacitors. This has never hurt anyth

I have seen some linear regulators that specify a small minimum load for stable operation. Usually these are low drop-out types, however. I have an RS-35 here, but I have never noticed any problems l

Bill - I just looked at the schmatic for the RS35 series -- it does not have an internal bleeder so I suspect thats why he put one external -- Hank K7HP ______________________________________________

Of course, I don't know why he did it but can suggest one possibility. The RS-35 was prone to RF interference which entered the supply by way of the negative output. In the early RS-35 supplies, the

The original reasoning for having a floating negative was to allow 2 of the supplies to be connected in such manner so as to provide a bipolar voltage configuration. And yes, they were RF prone witho

Would anyone suggest that using a power strip as the on/off switch for your Corsair II (always on) supplied by an RS35 (switch on)is a bad thing? I have an airpax that I normally use as the on/off sw

I think it is best to always have the supply on first and off last. I think it is a good thing to turn the Corsair on and off with a power strip and have the supply already on. Carl Moreschi N4PY Fra

i have ~heard~ a complaint that the Astron's only weakness is in it's AC line switch, it dies after several hundred operations, the rest of the supply will be fine but the switch will be shot. if you

My RS-35M was old and worn when I bought it over 10 years ago, and it's still going strong. Lots of RF in the shack, but no problem for the Astron (and the negative post has never been tied to the ch

I've had astrons (three of them) since 1988 and they are still working and they are turned off and on with each shack visit. No AC line switch has ever failed. Now you've heard something else. Best,

The resistor is there to prevent voltage surge at turn on, if it is across the positive and negative terminals. It provides a constant bleeder current for the output capacitors. For controlling your
