Yes, BUT -- they come with switch-mode power supplies, which will add RF 
noise to your receiver.

While no longer available, the X-Mini UNO self-powered speaker is Lion powered 
and good for up to 18 hours of use.  It has lasted a whole weekend with the KX3 
and charged from my solar panel via USB port when not in use.  Oh well,

That's a great solution. I do the same with everything in the shack, 
including computer video monitors.

I used this little audio amp with my KX3. Stereo 15W, runs off 12 V, $9, seems 
OK.

I wired it up to a couple of cheap Pyle speakers.

Re: [Elecraft] Powered Speaker for KX1

2017-01-25 Thread Tom
Jim,
It seems like most of the larger displays are 19V.  At least mine are.  My
one smaller screen is 12V.  I have powered it from the station power.  Are
your monitors only 12V?  If not how are you powering them from your station
power

Re: [Elecraft] Powered Speaker for KX1

2017-01-25 Thread Jim Brown
Yes, they are. Samsung made some 24-in displays that run on a nominal 
14VDC, and they run fine on 12V. Costco was selling them for a while, 
and as recently as two weeks ago, was selling a 24-in lower-resolution 
Samsung TV that runs on 14V. Like many things, you've gotta do a lot of 
looking around to find these things. :)  One place to look is the photos 
or specs on the Samsung website.
