The major 13vdc ham radio equipment input power connector is the 4

Gee, Charles, I just looked at my ICOM, Kenwood, Elecraft, Ten-Tec, AEA,
Uniden, and Alinco equipment here (I don't "do" Yaesu) and on none of
them do I find any "4 pin Molex".
De facto was a variety of connectors (2 pin Molex, T-connectors, others)
on the power cables, all of which had "pigtails" of about 6 inches and
APP connectors installed by me. Of course I have the proper tools and
experience to do them after several hundred successful installs.
