I don't think it's an issue if the NTC is properly sized. I installed one from a PC power supply in my AC-4, and didn't notice any problems - although I didn't take any actual measurements. Also, my PS-7, but there it's rather a moot point since it is a regulated supply. For the truly concerned, a time-delay relay circuit can be devised to bypass the NTC after a few seconds. 73 -Jim -- Ham Radio NU0C Lincoln, Nebraska, U.S.S.A.
