power source of more than 16 V DC. Such a connection will
damage the transceiver.

DC fused at more than 5 A. Accidental reverse connection will
be protected by this fuse, higher fuse values will not give any
protection against such accidents and the transceiver will be
ruined.

ware that external DC power connections will charge batteries
inside the battery case.This will damage not only the battery
case but also the transceiver.
