Lyle,

We're going to study the power-supply turn-on issue more carefully. As of right now your
particular ELPAC supply is the only we we know of that exhibits such a dip in voltage when
the load is applied. But if there are others like it, we'll try to find a solution in
firmware rather than make such supplies obsolete. 

I should point out that this came up during KAT100 field testing, which is exactly why we
do it!
