New to this radio, pardon me if this question is clarified elsewhere... but I haven't found the answer in the documentation or in group threads...
?
Just so I'm getting this straight.
?
DO *NOT* use the wall charger for transmission.? It's never shown me the proper voltage and it trickles just a few miliamps.
?
DO use an external power source 3.4A @ 13.8V (with the software charging switch turned to 'off' (per pg. 127 of the extended user guide.)
?
I'd use my deep cycle 12v battery and it's charger... tied to the radio via the power pigtail that came in the box.
?
Otherwise use the radio on battery only.? Unless the use is reception only?
?
The instructions and logic here seem pretty muddy.
?
Thanks in advance for helping me grok the conventions.
