I will be purchasing a "gently used" TS-130S from
another ham. What type of power supply do I need
for it?
The TS-130S Instruction Manual states ...
"The TS-130SE requires more than 18A at 13.8 VDC
when transmitting with full power. Use the model
PS-30 power supply for fixed stations."
Since finding a functional PS-30 power supply might
be hard, what other power supplies would be compatible?
Would a switching power supply work?
How about ...
MFJ-4322 - regulated, switching, 13.8 VDC at 22 amps
surge, or 20 amps continuous? (List Price $99.95)
MFJ-4125 - regulated, switching, 13.8 VDC at 25 amps
surge, 22 amps continuous (List Price $109.95)
Kenwood KPS-15 - switching, 13.8 VDC at 25 amps surge,
or 23 amps continuous? (List Price $143.55)
Suggestions???
Thanks & 73,
