 I just cant see how motorola would not have made a clean supply...it weighs 
about 35 lbs or more and has at least 6 big canned capacitors and another 
smaller transformer...I looked at the part/model number but very little info. 
The regulator board has no adjustable pots...strange.
Depends what you mean by "clean". In the two-way mobile radio industry, transmitter and receiver designs for mobile radios and stationary remote base/repeater radios are often virtually the same, with minor differences, mostly differences in the packaging. So if the regulation and noise bypassing is distributed throughout the radio, and designed to work in a mobile environment, with alternator whine and unstable supply voltage, then for stationary use it is not necessary to build a power supply that is a lot better than typical DC automotive power.
