I actually have two questions, first what size DC power supply will I need to power a Gen. Lee 10 meter, and a Davemade M80 amp. using as a base station?
Second, what size fuse should I install inline in my F150 for the Davemade M80 amp. when using as a mobile?
Thanks

You asked the same question in "Ask the Tech" 2 days ago. Just wait until someone answers.

I would want at least a 35 amp power supply to run the radio and M80. May get by with a 30 amp but that would be cutting it close. What size fuse does the M80 have in it, that's what you need inline also.

i wasnt familiar with amp far as ampo draw
when using the amp use the same fuse no
matter if its base or mobile. if you got
no fuse then tell us how many watts or
what transisters are in it.might be ableto figure
it out
