Re: Need mating connector for Kenwood PS-30 power supply

Re: [Amateur-repairs] Need mating connector for Kenwood PS-30 power supply
Looks like the right one to me. Make sure you put the proper pins into the housing. The pins themselves are male and female. The pins on the radio side are the male pins. The pins on the power

Thanks everyone for the replies. (I posted in a few groups so you may not have seen any discussion.) I asked the seller for more information on the eBay item and after getting his reply, I ordered

Re: Need mating connector for Kenwood PS-30 power supply
HI Donald, If you're not going to use it with an original radio directly, why don't you cut it off and put the Anderson Powerpole directly onto the lead out of the power supply. You could chop it off

Re: Need mating connector for Kenwood PS-30 power supply

Re: Need mating connector for Kenwood PS-30 power supply
Bob . . . I do not have a Kenwood radio. This will be used for Icom and possibly other brands but right now, no Kenwood radio. As far as I can tell, the one I linked to on Amazon matches the photo I

Some of the things in this apply to other brands of vintage radios, too. Maybe post it to the vintage amateur radio restoration group as well? Donald
