Gentlemen -
1) How I know if RF from my Omni VII was causing problems with my
Astron RS-35M linear type power supply ? Would it show up as an
anomalous readout on one or both meters? What if I had the model
without any meters - how would one tell ?
2) Could RF be getting into it from other gear not even powered by it -
say, by a 2 meter mobile used in the shack as a base rig for local
repeater work?
3) How could one tell if a "current" (pun intended) Model RX-35M is
grounded as described ? Is there an easy to identify spot on the power
supply's schematic diagram ? (I am a rookie at this, but might be able
to trace it with some local assistance or description here...) Or would
one just contact Astron and ask ? (...which is easy enough, but I am
trying to learn to use what info is already at hand...)
Thanks in advance.

the Astron supply is good but if the negative
output post is not grounded to the cabinet/chassis then RF
energy gets into the regulator circuitry...
