Hi
PowerPoles can be locked together with a small 'U" shaped piece of stiff
wire run through the holes between the red and black blocks after plugging
in the connectors. I do this on my solar panel setup to keep the connectors
in place even if the wires get pulled.
Thanks

12V power connector, does not have a positive lock, i e can
come loose if radio is moved. Again IMO this is junk.
Have you assembled the connector correctly, Jim? Both my K3 and my XV144
Anderson power connectors go in with a definite 'click' and neither of
them have come apart unintentionally even when the equipment is moved.
Being digital, the S-meter has incremental steps of one S-point which is
accurate enough for most practical purposes. In any case, everyone is 599
or 59 in contests ;-)
