OK, what's with the terminals on the astron?  I'm curious because I had a
Kenwood supply once that was a switcher, I blew 2 of them up, and they had
terminals, I didn't like because I couldn't find loops for them for the end
of the wire, the fasteners, nuts what ever those were, didn't come
completely off so I had to take big wire end loops and cut them to have a u
shape instead of completely round,  are they the same on the Astron
switching supplies? I much prefer they come all the way off and have a lock
washer to hold them tight.
