In that case, look at the wire size. It looks like pin 10 connects directly to the 13.8 bus, ou might want to cerify this as I just took a quick look over the service manual. In that case, you are limited by the size of the wire and the overhead of your 13.8 supply. You *may* need some extra decoupling on this line as well, but that remains to be seen. 73 -Jim -- Ham Radio NU0C Lincoln, Nebraska, U.S.S.A.
