Bill,
As you might suspect, I do that when DXing from the car and using my
WinRadio 313e. I use a small sealed lead-acid 6vdc motor cycle
battery in series with a 12vdc source, giving me 18vdc, more or
less. That seems to work fine, being hyper paranoid about battery
polarity, etc. I've
I just found a DC-AC power adapter for my computer. I will order one
and test it out.
I am still interested in the experiences others have had with 12 volt
DXing.

Have you tried a modern inverter? I use one with my HF-1000 (which
has no DC in) w
I am thinking of converting some of my equipment over to 12 volt
DXing so I can take advantage of remote locations. I can power my
R8B with no problem, but what about computers? I have search for a
