So I have noticed! But the Astrons, in general, have a loyal
following.

I did some research into the Pyramid supplies. As I said earlier,
they were not built for continuous service. Apparently, at any load.
Shame, too. With modification, they can be a pretty decent supply.

Apparently Pyramid has been taking design tips for ICOM.



My Icom R75 has been working flawlessly for many years :-)

Mine runs constantly. I had it "restored" at ICOM USA a couple years
back. They replaced something in the first mixer I think, (involved
taking shielded circuitry apart-very messy). Today the radio serves as
my 24/7 30 meter autospotter.
