    qje 50 amp power supply hooking in parallel

    One more thing you may have to move it a few feet from your oscope(you may experience some fuzzing). They do not make noise in the receiver on any band that I have powered equipment on.

    qje 50 amp power supply hooking in parallel

    Love these. Sound like a jet(50 amps). But they will haul the mail. Great customer service. Find another source to get a 100 amp supply for $220 or 150 amp for $330 not going to happen.

    Question about a linear

    Agree with JJD and NR, the new 29'a are a quagmire. Lowering the dead key and making it back right is not as easy as it used to be.
