Eric,

Wouldn't the RemoteRig's wall wart be enough to power both the RRC and 
K3/0 using a pigtail adapter, or even better though the RRC's AUX/MIC 
connector (which I believe you already use anyway to pass the microphone 
input to the front panel)?

It provides 1 amp, in able to power TS-480 and other external heads 
using the AUX/MIC connector, as well as the minimal current required by 
the RRC. This would provide a cleaner portable setup.

73,
Mitch DJ0QN
