Terry, did you end up getting one?
I purchased one last week, specifically for Field Day and fly-away-kit use.
Out of my two nearest DSE stores, there was only one unit left, not to be restocked.
Be aware that most DSE stores are in the process of dumbing down, and dropping many traditional stock lines, such as components, and any residual ham/cb orientated items.
This PSU was used for Winter Field Day last weekend, and I should point out I was operating out in a semi-rural area, the nearest houses being 100's of metres away... in other words, I had very low noise floor.
As others have noted above, I could not detect any discernible noise from this PSU.
At $115, I reckon it's great value.
I note that Andrews have this same PSU listed for $99, but whether they actually have stock of these advertised items is, at best, questionable.
By the time you add freight, you might as well go to a local DSE... if they still have them.
