Hi, I am thinking of buying a new PSU, has anyone any experience with Switch
Mode PSU's. Is there any sproggies on 137Kz? The PSU I am particularly
interested in is the Diamond GZV-2500, any advice welcome. Still just a SWL
on VLF but that could change soon, 73 Pete G3KNU

I recently opted for the 'Palstar PS-50' from Nevada which is a linear
PSU giving 40 amps continuous, 50 amps intermittent, at 13.8V. It is big
and heavy but economically priced and no noise. At least, there is no
electrical noise but a slight audible hum from the transformer -
something which you need to consider with a linear supply; a buzzing PSU
can drive you nuts! One with a toroidal transformer should be quieter
than one with a laminated one.
