I read my page 9 of the manual
differently. My page 9 expressly states the battery ... may be
charged by connecting to the "ext dc jack" with? their adapters,
or it also implies any 12 to 16 vdc supply, (using the correct
polarized plug).
I charge mine all the time thru the "ext dc jack" from my fixed
station 12 volt main battery system, or my truck 12 vdc buss.

Actually, neither one. That is, assuming your intent is to
plug it into the side of the radio. The US version of the FT-60R
may only be charged using a drop-in desk charger (SBH-13 with
PA-48 adapter). The 12V connection on the side of the radio will
only power the radio and will not charge the battery. See Page 9
in the manual.
