Good question David. It draws 1.2A at 13V now. I'm
guessing a 3A supply should be plenty, but
probably it won't take that much. This is a
temporary amp until I can afford something bigger,
and I thought I might have something to provide
24V or so in my junk. It seems I don't. I stupidly
got rid of a boat anchor 30V 10A supply a year
ago! Hindsight... :)

73,
Paul N1BUG
