A bit late with this one (ill health) but I had a horrible teaser with a
switcher. I was using a wall wart to power an MFJ Intellituner. It seemed OK
at first and I didn't detect any RFI on any band from it, but after a short
while I was getting a 10-20KHz wide spurious on 40 metres, and the center
frequency moved around from time to time and always seemed to cover the part
of the band that I wanted to use! I finally traced it back to the tuner,
which every time it tuned to a different band segment, used a different
internal relay array, which very slightly varied the load on the wall wart.
This in turn caused it to change its frequency. Needless to say, the wall
wart was replaced. Interference can indeed be strange.

Thanks to all for the advice. I found the issue. It is my Powerwerx SS30DV
Switching supply. I thought this supply was a good one to not create
problems like I am having. Not sure if it is fixable or If I need to send it
in for repair.
Very 73,
