Although the board includes the options to fit a switching voltage regulator (an R78E5), the regulator introduces spurs at -50dB on the output spectrum , so is not the recommended option. Fitting L10 (after cutting the track beneath it) does not suppress the spurs and introduces voltage drop, which upsets the modulator balance.
