Im still trying to come up with a high current DC supply for my mobile HF rig.
I have 4 - transformers that are all the same part number, there output is 4amp
at 18.5 vac. I want to hook a bridge to each & then connect the DC outputs of
each in parallel to increase current to my regulator circut.
I should end up with 17 - 18 VDC @ 16 amps. Does this sound like it would
work ok, Im not sure about paralleling DC supplies ?


That should work OK. If you want a regulated supply then connect the
regulator after the combined DC
voltages. That way you don't have to be concerned with the possible
reverse current through one
of the regulator circuits.
