[amsat-bb] Re: Yaesu 847 power supply -linear vs. switching

My preference is for big linear supplies but perhaps I'm just an old fogey that prefers traditional design.

I purchased a Yaesu 847 for both satellite and HF work. Since this is my 1st base-style transceiver I am now in need of a power supply. I was originally considering the Astron RS35M and am curious if linear or switching is the proper choice? Is there a Amsat BB favorite between switching and linear?

Thanks for any help!
