13.8v DC regulated power supply.
Although there are various models available, the one I looked at was the 70amp version, or, S-1270GWM.
The front of the unit is complete with Dual metering that provides running voltage and supplied current, PSU overload protection and reset, with two large 13.8v power terminals, and an illuminated mains supply on/off switch.
On the rear of the PSU is a large black heat sink, complete with forced air cooling from a standard muffin fan.
The unit I have is currently connected to both a transceiver and 200w brick amplifier. With 200w RF out of this system, the PSU delivers 35 amps with out problem. I have used this configuration for extended periods of both SSB and CW, and the PSU has performed great. The only time the PSU cooling fan did cut in was during an extended period of transmitting with WSJT software.
As you’d expect, the cooling fan creates air noise as it passes through the fan and over the heat sink, it’s my opinion that this noise is no worse than other forced air cooled PSUs, but no better either.
Although 72 amps is available, the most I’ve seen out of it was 65amps, this is not a problem with the PSU, I’m very confident that the 72amps is there, it’s just that I ran out of suitable equipment to load the PSU up.
To summarise, the S-1270GWM PSU is a well built power supply that will deliver a regulated 13.8v even when under considerable load, and with higher power solid state amplifiers becoming available, this PSU is just the job. I can whole heartedly recommend it.

Ranger 2950 DX - Superb radio, excellent quality. The audio quality on receive and transmit is amazing and so is the sensitivity, I can now hear and contact stations that I didn?t know even existed previously. 24 ? 32 megs out of the box is incredible. Feels and looks like a top notch professional product not like a ?tin foil? CB. Very versatile feature packed radio with the best display I have yet to see on any 10 meter rig. Great price and great service including free overnight delivery. I saw the Fusionrf site recommended in Radio User magazine in the Comms from Europe pages and I have already recommended Fusion on the air in the south Wales area and on a number of on-line radio forums

Hi to all,
I just had to give some feedback on Fusion.....and it is all good.
There is no need to go into detail other than to say the Fusion staff went
far beyond the level of personal service that I expected. It is quite rare
nowadays to find a human touch, especially online, but I have nothing but
thanks to give to these guys, it makes a refreshing change.
As far as the item I have purchased, I have just got my hands on the 10
Meter Cobra 200 GTL DX (rev 3). To say I am happy is quite an
understatement, I am actually over the moon. The radio is a real gem as they
proudly stated that it 'would be', and I am pleased to say they are correct.
The bottom line from me is to deal with these guys in complete peace of
mind, I can guarantee you that you will be happy that you did.
All the very best,
Darren.

Colin,
Great support answering the questions and super fast trouble free shipping.
The BLA 300 works really well dont even need a PTT connection (works better with one though) ALC line is also controlling the FT847 output power.
Thanks for excellent service.
Good luck..

I was so impressed with your service, I bought 2 cobra 200's and was pleased at how quick they were delivered and how well wrapped they were. After sales was also fantastic! Very quick responding and very helpful. Would recommend this company to anyone as I have already done so, more then once or twice. BRILL! can't fault them at all! Thank's Simon.

Cobra 200 Rev 3
I have bought many radios over the last25 years and bought the Cobra 200 Rev 3 frm yor a few months ago to replace the first Cobra which had many issues of which you are well aware.
The Rev 3 is a vast improvement but I caused it to malfunction, the help and the service I had from you was exceptional.
Should I decide to buy another radio it will be from you.
Please feel free to usse this or any part of it if you wish.
Many thanks,
J.C. Beardmore.
