Well, Robert, happy to have helped you.

It made me crazy at the time... I think it depends on voltage dropping 
at the input on the radio. Someone suggested me to shorten DC cable; 
another one found a 9 VDC at the input, so he elevate VDC drain from 
PSU. I think that 220VAC is far better than 12 VDC at all, so I only use 
main current drain.

Best 73
