If onen is going to use a dc-dc converter the Cuk converter used here is a nice topology in that it can have low input and output ripple currents. However input and output filters like the Murata BNX002/BNX005 series would have been useful as would an LM3042 linear post regulator for the -12V output.. Low noise regulators for the +12V and +5V outputs would also be useful.

I use the TAPR HPSDR LPU:

I run two Trimble Thunderbolts on a LPU that uses the house 13.6 
Volt supply that is backed up with two 6 Volt golf cart 
batteries in series.  I didn't bother installing the Anderson 
Power Pole and ATX connectors, but wired directly to the circuit 
board.
