[Elecraft] ProAudio Engineering KX33 Power Supply

Anyone have experience with the PAE KX33, particularly with a base K2?

On examination of the second incident of blown PA (and other) transistors
in the K2, and the fact that on both occasions I was using a MFJ supply,
and that the rig worked without incident when running for several hours on
a Power Werx supply, I have come to suspect that the MFJ supply created
transients which somehow escaped being regulated out.  It is now in the
trash.  Hence the need for a clean, light weight, reliable, and
well-regulated PS for the K2 when running low power, and for use with the
KX3.

All comments would be most welcome.  Tnx,

Ted, KN1CBR
