It's not a sign of a "low quality" supply at all, but merely one that has a 
transformer in it.


I had major problems with power supplies here a expensive kenwood switch 
mode and a not so expensive samlex switch mode gave me magnetic interference 
+ a lot of rf interference across the 80m band,i am not sure about the 
statement made by ron that (High quality switching supplies don,t do either) 
my expensive kenwood one was i nightmare but i will accept expensive does 
not constitute quality also in the uk we use supplies that transform from 
240v so results may be different in the uk i use a 35.00 usd non switchmode 
power supply from watson now that is pretty cheap model is watson w3 amp i 
have no problems now.
