Switchers are a different story. And you remind us all the "high quality"
doesn't necessarily go with "high price". That's  why I still use a big,
clunky ol' linear supply sitting under my desk. Got enough noise on the
bands already <G>

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.
