I strongly agree. I converted ALL of my ham gear to Power Pole soon after buying my first K2. I've subsequently converted all of my other personal equipment that runs on 12VDC in one form or another. Makes life a lot easier. I have seen documentation of inferior "knock-off" connectors made by mfrs other than Anderson. Problems include unsatisfactory mating. One other important point. Twisted pair is well known for rejecting RFI, yet power cords for ham gear have traditionally used parallel conductors. The same is true for loudspeaker cables. That's two more standards worth changing. 73, Jim Brown K9YC _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
