Hi all,
I've been looking over the manual of the TH-D7(G) HT and I can't seem to
find any information on the size of the plug used to supply DC input to this
unit. There is a fused cable available, PG-2W, but if the plug size is
known then I can attempt to find it and make my own cable.
Thanks to all for the great comments...

Hi Greg,
It seems the printer cut and paste from last year's ballot, and we missed

Hello Greg and the BB,
There is an announcement on the front page of the AMSAT web site about the
ballot problem. There will also be an announcement in this week's ANS. A
new colored, ballot with correct instructions is being sent out and will be
the one counted.
Sorry for the problem.

Hi Marv,
If the SWR suddenly changed, you've probably got a broken feed wire somewhere.
I'd leave the matching section adjustment alone (assuming it was good before),
