May be noise implications with the larger voltage drop of a
conventional diode .. a foreword conducting diode is a noise source ...
so perhaps a reverse larger derive across the supply would be more
appropriate ?

Hi John, It just gives a lower voltage drop but the unit only takes about
60mAmax I think. A Si would do the job.

LF,
I see from the RSGB Handbook that there is a Schottky diode in series with
the +12 line. Does it have to be a Schottky device?
