Hi again

I should have been a bit more detailed.
The two heavy wires red & black are split and shrink wrapped
inside the red hood of the connector to make Y's on the end.

My only other real experience with a Yeasu HF rig is the 757 and I know that with that there is the normal positive and negative terminals, and the other two are merely jumpered together with no other connection to power.  So, if it's just a case of splitting/jumpering to make two positives and two negatives, I'm a little confused by the simplicity. :-)
