I've got a couple of them heading my way, arrival date TBD as they've 
not left China yet.  I'll post my results.  I'll probably try an LC 
filter if mine show the same 3 KC noise.

I'm hoping to use mine as dynamotor replacements for SCR-183 and RU/GF 
sets.  Actually, I'm not sure what the current draw is on the GF 
transmitter, so it might not be a good match for the GF.

I'm very curious to see what switch mode controller chip they are using 
and what sort of transistors.

How's the build quality?

thanks much and 73,
