[TenTec] Orion Questions

[KXBill]

Hello Bill:
     I have been using the MFJ 4245MV, 45 amp switching PS on various TT
products and have not experienced any problem with RFI.  They also make
a 25 amp unit.  Some MFJ dealers will discount off of the SLP. TT is now
a dealer for them.  See:

Good hunting

Hello All!


2.  This is a more general question for all.  I need to get a power
supply for my Orion but am very concerned about RFI that may
be generated by switching power supplies.  The last thing I want
to hear is a bunch of RFI birdies when I'm digging weak signals out
of the noise on 160.  My inclination is to go with a traditional
power supply like the Astron RS-35, but wonder if anyone has any
experience with RFI from power supplies (Ten Tec, Astron, others)
for the Orion?


Thanks for your thoughts!
