Actually, you don't need that quiet of a laptop/p-supply. *Just use the
serial to usb with ~30ft of USB cable length. *Wrap 10-15 turns of the
cable through a ft240-43 toroid. Friend had to do this with a noisy dell

running a new Acer and the problem is non-existent. *I had no problem
with just a 6ft. USB cable and no choke on an HP. *I was really
impressed. *My $5000+ SDR transceiver beats it, but darn, at that price
it is a steal! *I would place it into the HOT category of receivers ...

My TenTec RX-320D "DSP" Receiver experience
was with a Noisy Dell Lap-Top's Power Supply :

It has a buffered IF out or something, no?

I was going to get a FlexRadio until I found out I need POS Windows to
use it. I got a K3 instead.

Rob Sherwood has a K3.

I have no religious devotion to one OS or the other. Linux, open
source, software is in development, and you can download beta from a
site. However, if makes no difference what platform adjusts my radio
.... but, the K3 is another option.
