I have a nice 20AMP 12VDC supply that's not being used for anything these days, so I decided to get the external DC cable for the 1000MP, which is available from R&L Electronics, by the way.  http://www.randl.com/ Yaesu Part# T9018320.  It just arrived today so I got it if things go south. Actually I am planning on trying out my MP with the external supply just to see if that indeed makes the very slow turn on go away, and I will also be ready if the internal supply indeed goes.

   It can use the same power cord as the FT-847. I have an 847 so was 
lucky and had the power cord on hand when mine bit the dust.
