[Elecraft] Fusing power cable on K3

[Bob McGraw K4TAX]

Since it is only to be used not mobile, I would not add a fuse to the 
power cord.   It only adds a few tenths ohms but it still is added R 
that isn't needed.

As to ICOM, any radio that is used mobile should be fused in the DC Pos 
and DC Neg leads.

I noticed that the power cable that came with my IC7000 has fuses in both leads.  Since the K3 has a built in fuse it is still a good idea to put fuses in both sides of the new power cable?  It will be only used in the shack, not mobile.
