[Boatanchors] WRL Galaxy V power supply needed

I really just need the power supply (he said, not thinking far enough 
ahead) but I have this Yaesu FT-560 that receives with a hum (never 
tried transmit, no mic). So, if we can arrange an even trade for a III 
and the power supply (that will also operate the V) in exchange for the 
FT-560, that would work for me. Otherwise I'd do cash for the power supply.
