Check this site out. I have purchased several for 100 W+ applications with no RFI and they run cool.

I have a KX3, and have a KXPA100 amplifier on order. I see that my 20A Tripp-Lite linear power supply isn't sufficient to power both of these, so I'm researching other supplies. Astron seems to be the gold standard, but I also see some MFJ supplies. The 3045MV is a 30A linear supply, and looks good from the specs. Any opinions on this one? MFJ also has the 4245 45A switching supply, and the DX Engineering catalog says, "No RF hash? These power supplies are clean!" Are they really clean? I don't want ANY hash spoiling my quiet location, and will avoid any switching supply that creates receive noise. Does anyone have experience with this line of MFJ switching supplies? What about the Astron ASR-SS-30M 30A switching supply. Quiet or noisy? Should I even consider a switching supply, or stick with a linear model? The Astron ASR-RS-35M looks good, albeit more expensive than the MFJ 3045MV. Thanks for any information. -- 73, Mike N4CF Louisa County, VA USA Elecraft KX3 #3118, 10W Carolina Windom up 45' http://n4cf.mdodd.com ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
