This is has been an instructive thread as it gives some ideas for
quieting the top cover of the RM-50M under my desk.  I'm also curious
that not much has been written about the Power Werx SS-30DV resold by
Elecraft:

https://elecraft.com/collections/power-supplies/products/ss30dv-25a-30a-surge-power-supply

I presume the engineers at Elecraft have examined this model for noise
on the DC output and generated RF noise and found it quiet/acceptable,
though a technical report would be nice to see.

I have a Powerwerx SS-30DV power supply but I only use it when  
operating from the Caribbean. I have not heard any RF noise from it  
during normal contest operation. I wish that there were more two more  
PowerPole jacks but I added a junction so I can power all of my 12v  
peripherals plus the K3S by quickly plugging them in. At home I use a  
70amp Astron that I have owned for decades.  I have not heard any hum  
or RFI from it.

I also have this power supply and use it frequently for field work.  

Have had no problems.

40 meter AX1

In reply to this post by Nate Bargmann

Anyone hear any updates on the 40 meter AX1 type product?  I think it was called the AX1EX or similar?

Just curious - there was some discussion several months ago about a prototype.

I'm sure a minor little project called "K4" intervened.

When I spoke to them late last month, they said they were shooting for mid
September.  With a price point not set yet.
