[MRCA] BC-610I on a 20A circuit?

[Jason WA6BBQ]

I’ve always been under the impression that a BC-610 required a minimum of a
30A 120V circuit.

At full power according to the manual, on 120V (original spec is 115V)
comes to 16 2/3 A, just a tad past the 80% circuit loading “rule.”

Sure, 30A would be vastly preferable, but I’m curious to hear of anyone’s
successes running one on a 20A circuit/ 12GA wire.

Something might rapidly move up in restoration priority! Or, it’s just a
really bad idea?

Thanks and 73,
Jason WA6BBQ
