[time-nuts] Parallel voltage regulators

[Don Collie]

I`ve always wondered about noise from batteries - please tell us more 
Bruce!! [....also wondered about noise from the electrolytic action of 
aluminium, and tantalum electrolytic capacitors, and wondered if the 
reference bypass capacitor in a 723 should be a plastic dielectric type, 
rather than electrolytic].........
