That's better. That is a filter that suppresses CM and DM signals via
capacitors, but it still looks like
Another couple of points.
About 10 years ago, at a local ham-fest, there was a guy selling brand
new Lambda power supplies. They were adjustable from 10-15 V and he had
models ranging from 20-50 amps. They were switching supplies.
I couldn't pass these up and bought 7 or 8 of them. They
I ended up wiring in some CorCom line filters that I had around the house
and it completely removed the noise. I've used these supplies for years
including being used on a number of different DX-peditionsthey are
light and fairly small. This fix worked just great.
I can't understand why

Hello to the group.I recently built an AMD quadcore machine I intend to
eventually replace my trusty XP Pro machines.
Foolishly got in a hurry to complete the build and purchased a PS from a local
shop.It supplies the power required without issue, I have discovered why the
price was so good.Jim

Hi Clay,
One thing you might want to check.
See if you can get inside the power supply...disconnect it first. Take a
look on the PCB near the power connector. There may be a space on the
PCB where you can install a power line filtersomething like a CorCom
or similar. Sometimes they
