<DIV> I am running a Radio Shack HTX-202 ht on APRS and it works great even though it only put's out 5 watts but I can run the ht off external power (13.5 vdc) from ether the car or in the house on a regulated power supply. And by the way the HTX-202 can handle 15 vdc external power feed into it with no problem. I have an Alinco DX70T hf rig that has a problem that I can't figure out, it won't transmit unless the power supply voltage is 15 vdc. I have tried running the DX70T in the car no transmit at all, and I tried it on a different power supply with the same result, no transmit until the supply voltage is up to 15 vdc.</DIV>
