Cheap Base station power supply
Was given a hot swap server power supply 45amp
Set it for 13.8v
mounted some terminals and now I have a power supply about the size of half a carton of cigarettes.
Tested it on a 100watt Kenwood. No power dropout at all.

Sometimes those old switching server supplies are noisy, sounds like you found a good one for radio use.nosaj wrote: December 30th, 2019, 7:14 pm Was given a hot swap server power supply 45amp
