Jeff, I don't think there's gonna be any consensus here. Perhaps you
should just state what it is you're wanting to do and why and with
what. Do you have a receiver with the ol' "External DC In" terminals
on the back? Are you wanting to hook it up to a gel cell or something
of that sort? Perhaps you should give more particulars and the
resident IEEE community might better be able to help you.

The specifics a

I have a FRG-7, which of course runs off AC power but also has the
capability to run off batteries (internal) or a 12VDC external power supply.
I have a Staco PS-4 filtered power supply that puts out a very clean and
stable voltage, up to 4A. It seems very well shielded, and I could put it
as far away from the radio as I needed, within reason of course.

To hook it up requires me to purchase the right connectors, etc. I'm
wondering if it's worth the trouble.
