Interesting. To have an intelligent discussion of this, I think we need to understand that switchers can be made with any range of performance spec for RFI from very good to awful. Because I don't ha

The ICOM 751A generates FM trash when the internal switching supply is used. The problem is the VCO coil is next to the transformer in the switching supply module, and the magnetic flux changes perme

Not this one - but it would apply to another one in the planning. No transformer in stock, but enough bits to build a switcher - so I get to learn something too. Not quite penniless, but certainly pa

I had a borrowed 751 (not the A model) with the built-in switching supply for a time. It generated enough noise on receive to interfere with weak signal reception. I sent it to ICOM, and they fixed a

The filament transformer is typically about 5-10% of overall amplifier weight. On a 60 pound amp that's 3-6 pounds. If the switching supply cuts that in half, we save 1-1/2 to 3 pounds. I think the

A transformer running at say 400 Hz would be approximately 1/8 to 1/4 the size of one at 60 Hz. Not only is it a weight savings, but the transformer itself will cost much less. Best, Will ** REPLY SE
