We did not track down the noise issue coming from the power supply until summer of 2025, and we requested and paid for an engineering effort by the supplier to make the noise level significantly lower. Their 4th revision design did it, and there is virtually no noise being sensed by the receiver with the new supply,\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can see in the scope images below the original noise at 200 mv\/div and the final noise at 100 mv\/div. - twice the scope gain. Impressive, and confirmed by lack of noise in Nomad.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTo replace your power supply, follow these instructions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove all screws from the rear panel, and tilt in down behind the Nomad, being careful not to stress the power switch wires.
