the rumor I heard on the heath   mobile  supply is it   would  run it  but 
not at full output.  hard to be live that  little box put out 400 watts...

The  problem is that the power supplies come on the market when no one 
wants  
them.  I had one about 4 years back and no one took it until a guy in  
Texas 
thought he could make it work on another brand of  transceiver.

Turns out it would not work and, last I know, he still had  it, but that 
was 
a long time ago and he is not a member of this  list.  I took the time to 
change the capacitors and check it out and  sold it for 25 dollars plus 
shipping.

Strange thing those Galaxy  power supplies are.  The power supplies of the 
time will work, but  they don't have the HV necessary to really run Galaxy 
equipment to full  output and maybe not the 6 and 12 volt  outputs.

I  have been trying to  find  one also but  seems to  be   more  Galaxys
than   supplies as  some  of   then  would  bought  new and used mobile  
their
whole life...
I have hear the heath kit mobile Power  supplies   can be  made/or  adapted
to power   these Galaxys.

I leaped  before I looked and am now the proud owner of a  Galaxy V with a
boatload  of tubes on the way. Here's the Homer  Simpson moment: I don't
have a power  supply for it. Am hoping that  someone out there in
Boatanchorlandia can  point me to an AC-35 or an  equivalent supply (that
can be gently massaged)  to work with the  Galaxy V. Any help would be
appreciated.   Thanks,
