Paul: It does little if any good to measure your power supply voltage at the PS end of the cable. You also do not mention if you are using the oridinal Icom power cable which can sometimes drop a lot of voltage not only in the cable but in the series fuses as well. Rhis is why the Icom PS-125 uses very short power leads with no series fuses in the power leads. I know it is a pain to slip back the boot covering the end power connector at the rig, and measure the voltage there or remove the top cover and measure the voltage at the back inside of the radio.To not do this first is like replacing Ohms law with Voodoo.73, Larry K4LXV.
