Skip, I can appreciate your concern about dirty lines but the DC end of
the PS is not the place to start.
I have been told by a PS designer that placing caps across a series
string of diodes can lead to problems. The explanation was a bit over my
head but I can put you in touch with the source if you wish....he is a
highly placed and published PS designer for the military. It all has to
do with the process used in manufacturing the diodes, which has changed
over the years.
