There was a fair amount of talk about the Powerpole connectors on QRP-L
recently. They come in a variety of sizes; the ones you want are the
30-amp size. Some sources that surfaced:
West Mountain Radio (sells the connectors, as well as RigRunner
multi-outlet boxes for powering your whole shack with PowerPoles,
cables, and various other accessories): http://www.westmountainradio.com/
Powerwerx (sells PowerPoles, and also large-gauge red/black zip cord):
http://www.powerwerx.com
MCM Electronics: http://www.mcmelectronics.com
Anderson Power, which Phil mentioned, is the manufacturer of the
connectors. They also have an online store.
If you're willing to spend the $50, the small model of RigRunner would
make a very tidy mobile installation for your K2/100, your VHF/UHF
radio, and anything else you might want to power.
