[1000mp] If the FP-29 dies

[Ed Hughes]

Tnx guys for the replies, looks like it's a go with the 2 supplies. 
Shouldn't be too hard to wire it up. I didn't think one could purchase a 
FP29 anymore ? Let me know if they're available & the $$. I have a 70 amp 
Astron sitting here powering a "keyer" hee-hee, just would have to buy the 
30v supply. I guess maybe this guy would repair the FP29 if it died ?

Anyway just thinking about the alternatives concerning the FP29.
