There was some uncertainty a few months back on the PG XL power connector:

What is the final production connector/matching plug configuration (amp side)? 

 - C19/C20?

- C13/C14?

-  Other?

 

Thanks,

Howard

    So flex is including the connector now?  I thought we had to supply our own.

    You get a power cord with an unterminated end. Supply your own plug, or do what I did and get your own cord set.

    It says 10 amps but I haven't had an issue.

    Thanks much, Ria!  I installed a dedicated 240V circuit for the amp, but it is a ways from where the PG XL  will be located, so I’ll probably need a longer cord.

    Thanks again,

    Howard

    I use a 10 footer. Works fine, even steady sustained output like MSK144 on 6 meters and FT8 on 160.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
