You get an extra bonus with these converters, it happens on 123.0 123.3
and
123.5 and many other frequencies I would guess, especially on Becker
Radios
a loud squelch hiss sometime with the 2 second GPS pulse sometimes
constant.

Some time ago I noticed in a post a link to a DC/DC
converter IC. I'd like to investigate these and would
appreciate a repost if possible. I have tried searching
the archives but can't come up with the right search
phrase or the post is older than I remember.

Thanks,

John
