I am having very good performance from the SEC 1223 which is the same supply I use with the K2/100. If it does generate any noise I have yet to hear it.

I have a K3/100 coming in the next month or 2, and now I am thinking about how it is best to power it. The K3 has a nice small footprint and that will be much welcomed in my small operating area. And, I don't want to dwarf the available space with a big linear power supply. Therefore, I am considering a switching power supply with its small size as well. Switching supplies have come a long way relative to the RF hash generation issue and I am considering going that route. I sure don't want to degrade the K3'3 outstanding performance with a noisy supply, so I am still cautious. The eHam reviews for switching supplies provides a lot of different opinions for the various products. One in particular, the Jetstream JTPS28, seems to get high marks from its users. Is anyone on the list using this particular supply to power the K3? If so, what are your impressions of its performance? Or should I skip the switching power supply idea altogether?
