[Icom] T7H From External Power

[Kevin Nathan]

Hello All,

I recently picked up a used T7H.  Currently all I have for it is the wall
charger.  I want to run this radio in my office off of a little 5.5 amp 13.8
VDC supply I have.  When I talked to Icom about this the other day, they
warned me not to operate the rig on DC power through the charging jack.
They said the power divider won't handle the full transmit draw.  I was
advised to purchase a battery eliminator instead.

Have any of you on this list used the T7H on external power?  If so, which
arrangement did you employ?  Did you encounter the problem Icom warned me
about?

I really appreciate any information you might be able to give me on this
one.  Thanks much and 73.

Kevin, K7RX :)
