Default Are switch-mode powers supplies suitable for receivers?

I have an ex AM PMR radio that I wish to use on 144Mhz. I need a PSU feeding

Are switch-mode powers supplies alright or are they too noisy to be used for
receivers? TIA.

Some are, some are not. You have a lot of choices available at 300ma.
