I just reduced the current demand by driving a KPA500 at all times :-)

John and all,
You can splice a short (3 to 4 inches) length of #12 wire to the #8 or
#10 wire and it will not have negligible voltage drop due to the short
length.
Or use an APP 75A fitting with 8 AWG wire and the APP 75A-30A reducing
adapter (with or without the above-recommended pigtail) to the 30A-size
fitting on the transceiver (I do that for my K2/100). The battery and
power-supply leads to my distribution system, however, are 4 AWG with
crimped lugs and stud mounts.
