Hi Clive 

With regard to this switched mode PSU - I have two of them. 

I only detected a little noise on one occasion on 3.5 MHz and it wasn't significant. It was when I was using an inverted vee antenna fed with 300 ohm ribbon. Since my fixed station is now all coaxial fed I haven't detected any interference from the units I have at all.

Merry Xmas and 73

I have had a couple of reccos. for this PSU to address my trigger happy
problem with the Nissei and the IC7400.


So far so good. However, the eham.net reviews cite serious switch mode noise
problems on 80&40m, although most don't mention it, and give it 5/5.

Does anyone else here have experience of the unit, particularly in respect
of switch mode noise?
