Hi;
I too am using an icom supply.  If it just had two posts on the back like 
lots of the astron supplies it would be easy.  This supply came complete 
with cord which was neat as long as the plug fit and it did for my ic751 440 
450 and 570.  Sounds like I will have do some connector changing for the 480 
if I go that route.

Hi Richard.

While I have no experience with the Kenwood TS480S, I can tell you that the
TS2000S uses the same power cord, and surprisingly all of the Icom HF
transceivers use the same cord; my sister is actually running her Icom off
a Kenwood PS50 power supply and it works quite nicely, even if it doesn't
look cosmetically all that nice.
