what size power supply?
 
Hello, I am running a Yaesu FT-2500M mobile transceiver radio inside my
house and I was wondering what size power supply (how many amps) do you
recommend I should be using? thanks in advance

Dustin -- the current draw should be in the specs in your manual.
I allow at least a 50% margin.

I can't find the FT-2500's current draw on the web but found it is a 50
watt radio in TX

From the Yaesu site -- a FT-2600M is a 60 Watt radio and draws 10 Amperes
So I would use at least a 15 amp supply for this radio. A little less for
the FT-2500
Check the manual specs!
