Hi, No tuner is fine me. Tuners belong at the far end of the coax, not in the shack. But is it really true that the power supply is linear? Sounds like a terrible waste of energy to me. Switchers *can* be made quiet these days. Switchers are also much more adaptible to various primary voltages.
On the topic of 120/220V, of course I have nothing against 220V which is a must in Europe, as long as it will run on 120V. I do not currently have 220V in the shack but could relatively easliy install it as the breaker panel is just next door.
