John,
Yes, fuse it. I have repaired several KX1s that were damaged by
excessive current through the PC traces.
I would suggest a fuse in the range if 2 to 5 amps. 3 amps should be
the ideal target.

Good Day Everyone,
I want to use a 12v 7ah gel cell to power my KX1. I'm assuming that I need
some in-line protection between battery and rig. What size fuse is the
correct one for this application? (A kindly ham sent me this info a while
back, but his email has gone missing, and I don't want to rely on my
increasingly faulty memory).
Tnx es 73
