I have a question on adjusting the voltage a bit higher for use with the K3.
I was thinking of 14.5 V, as others have mentioned, and adjusting voltage on
receive.
I have an accurate voltmeter.
Should I set
that keeps a 95AH AGM battery charged,
but before that was used normally without incident.

Good morning everyone ,
I think I have found a very nicely maintained and equipped K3 to purchase. Any
purchase recommendations as to a well constructed and trouble free power supply?
Thanks

This is a recurring topic - search for k3 power supply
I've used an Astron RS-35M very happily for years. Had to turn it up a tad for
the K3.
Tip: The voltage adjustment is on the under side of the board..

My RS-35A has been on and in use 24/7 (except during storms and
vacations) for well over 25 years. I plan on replacing it just because
this summer - with a new one.

One of mine is over 30 years old ... it gets opened about one
a year to have the dust blown out, have screws/bolts checked
(filter cap terminals, etc.) and the output voltage gets checked.
Never a bit of trouble ...
My newer unit is perhaps five years old ... it gets the same
treatment also no
I use either my Astron RS70M or my RS35M at my shack in San Diego. Both are
really great. I got the larger astron for use with a couple larger mobile solid
state amps and my TS480hx.
I also have a powererx 30 amp power supply and a RS35 (no meter) at my other
shack in Texas. Both of those
If it ain't broke ... just open it up, blow out the dust, and tighten all of the screws
that connect the capacitors to the board. Then make sure the bolts on the output
connectors are tight, too.
Then settle back and use it for another 25 years.

Older Astron power supplies can continue to give good service, there is
no reason to replace it unlessit seems to have a problem.
One of the things that does go bad in these supplies, particularly ones
of this vintage, is that the main filter capacitor loses its
microfarads(dries
