No,
My comment was more along the lines that in the quarter century since that
article, I?m sure there are many new models of supply, that it is entirely
possible that internally models have changed. It was really really great
information on what existed 25 years ago, but how good is it on what exists
today?
Reading a lot of the EE trade bags, particularly over say the last 4-5 years,
EMI/RFI has become a big topic for switching power supply folks, and the chip
makers that now make chips specifically for power supplies have done work to
help eliminate some of the issues, and heck, even the printed circuit board
design software folks are putting in features to help eliminate the issues.
So yes, great article on what was the state of the ham radio industry at the
turn of the century, but how much it reflects today is up for debate
