Dave,
I have used both the Icom switcher and a Jetstream switching
supply. I have been impressed with both of them. They have run my
Kenwood TS850 and Icom IC756 PRO III effectively and quietly. So, if
ever the two old Astron 35 amp. linear supplies give up the ghost,
I'll have fall back. But the Astrons may well run longer than me!
