I have a power supply from an old computer, don’t remember the brand or age at this point. A little research and I found that to turn it on, you just need to ground the green wire. So had it turned on and had my transistor radio nearby and depending on where in the AM band I tuned, it picks up some squeals and other noise. We have a 20 year old Dell computer that will be scrapped so I retrieved the power supply from that unit too. The first power supply is an M-Tech and the other is a Dell. They both have the same connectors with the exact color wires in each. Not being computer savvy, I found that interesting. Seems like computer power supplies are kind of universal. Anyway, when trying both, seems like the Dell doesn’t put out as much interference as the M-Tech so I can at least try either one after I get the AK up and running! Hopefully not too much longer.

IF can wire size and Rubber mounts?

Renovated Radios do carry what you need.
As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM |
