Well in the shack I use a HB linear supply using biggest parts I could
scrounge. Just to see what it could do I went keydown on 3 100 watt rigs
and it sagged 1/2 volt. If I am portable I use either a Powerwerx 30 amp
switcher or an MFJ 25 amp switcher. Rigs can't tell the difference. In the
shack I prefer to run everything off of 1 supply so everything has same
ground and V+ levels.
