[RFI] New Astron Switching PS RFI?

I had the SS-30 (no meters) in the '90s.   No formal testing, just observations.   It was RF quiet, I mostly used it on VHF but at least once on HF.  It had a regulation problem if RF was in the shack, such as a nearby 2m mag mount in a hotel room on a marginal ground plane.  The RF/regulation problem went away when I bolted my 2m rig bracket to the top of the PS case.

The PS lasted about 15-20 years.  There was no collateral damage to my rig when it died.

All:

Has anyone tested the latest Astron switching power supplies for noise? 
I read a few reviews that said the new units produce no noise on HF.
