12v for KAT500, et al.

Dennis L. Haarsager
My new KAT500 adds yet another 12v pigtail to many others in my shack. Does anyone make a box of some sort to collect and organize all these to a 12v supply? Thanks.

Yes, for low power devices, meter lamps in tuners and power meters,
etc.,  I use a power distribution strip I made specifically for that
purpose.  It is supplied from the stations main supply.  No wall warts
at my QTH.

The output connectors are a few chassis mount RCA connectors, a couple
of PowerPole connectors and a 4 position terminal strip. Of note, none
of my radios are connected to this strip.  All radios connect direct to
the power supply as does this power distribution strip.

Sure. Several companies make and/or sell multi-outlet strips for Power
Pole connectors, and also sell Power Pole connectors. Many of us have
standardized them for all of our DC powered gear. Once you've learned
how, they're easy to install with nothing more than hand tools and a
soldering iron.

Check out PowerWerx and West Mountain Radio.

Since ol' Grumpy is gone Powerwerx has a pretty good line of power pole
products.
