I have been using the MFJ 4125 for about two years, with my K2 and now the
K3. I have found no evidence of noise at all. 73 Max/ZL4VV _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

And I have been using mine for well over three, first with my IC-718 and now with my K3. No evidence of RF noise or hash whatsoever. In a QST comparative test several years ago, the MFJ-4125 was found found to be one of the quietest of all, regardless of price. The fan could be quieter but it's not obnoxious.

MFJ now have a version of the 4125 with Anderson PowerPole connector on the front panel. I believe it's the MFJ-4125P 73, ...

I replaced the rear low-current connectors on the MFJ-4125 with two pairs of
Anderson Powerpoles. Info is in the "Equipment Modifications" section of my website at www.ad5x.com.

MFJ website says "two pair" of APP's, but they want $25 more. I think you
could rig up a couple of pigtails for a lot less than that. No picture yet on the website.

Correction...........guess it's only $15 more. First price I saw for the
standard version was on GigaParts. Maybe they will discount the newer version as well.
