Terry,
The KX3 has internal protection, but a fused power lead (only necessary
in the positive lead) provides additional protection. That is important
IMHO when powered by an external battery - there is a lot of energy in a
battery, and if the wire is pinched and shorts, it will spew molten metal.
Fuse close to the power source, NOT the radio end of the power cable.

I was looking at my power leads and realaized I had no fuses in the lines.
The factory power lead as well had no fuses. I'm about to change that with
inline fuses.
I would appreciate any comments..
