I just acquired a 229A tuner, and I can see that I will have an issue regarding the panel lights. If I use an RCA plugged cable to my Corsair II everything will be fine. The panel lights will be on w

The point is that there are other alternatives to seeing KE6YX unnecessarily hacking up the back of the tuner. If Ken doesn't feel that ANY laptop power supply should be considered because SOME gener

Thanks to everyone regarding the 12V power for my 229A tuner. I picked up a switch to go between the wall wart and the 110 V Power strip. I then made an adaptor to go to the RCA plug, and all is well
