You still need a bigger Power supply, The Pyramid brand has a tendency to
advertise more than what they actually put out. I had the same problem. Invest in a nice 20 Amp Astron, or tripp-lite power supply and that will take care of things for you. You can always get a good deal on one used if you look. Qrz.com classifieds, Qth.com classifieds, etc. Good luck! |

I have read elsewhere that Pyramid power supplies are adversely affected by
RF. They don't have filtering to keep RF from following the power wires back to the regulator. However, I think there may be a problem with the radio. Has it been used long on this P.S. or is it a new setup? Can you borrow a different P.S. from a friend to verify the problem? Chris "Vinnie S." wrote in message ...

Chris I think it's the power supply. Radio works fine in the car. Vinnie S. |
