[MRCA] 12-24V converters?

[J. Forster]

Gene,

The connectors looked like Molex or possibly an AMP automotive.

If you don't need 500W full time, you might consider a couple of 12V SLAs
in series, plus a smaller 12-->24 DC/DC converter to charge them. In some
WWII Wireless vehicles, the radios operated off separate batteries.
