Hi Steve,

I probably will end up doing the same as you but I thought if I could find
one all ready made up or someone who could do it at a reasonable price that
would save me the trouble.  You're right, I am making some progress.  It's
slow but hopefully one day I'll be back.  I did hook up a small vertical
antenna to try to work the K1N but so far no luck.  

73, Gary

Gary,

Since it's a power cable you need, here is what I did when I switched my 
THP amp from 120v to 240v:

I picked up a regular 120v cable with the IEE  plug to go into the amp, 
    cut off the  plug that goes into the wall, and replaced it  with the 
proper plug for 240v 15amp.  Had one laying in the junk box, but they 
can be had  at Homo Depot or similar.

Maybe you can find one all made up on e-bay?

73, looks like you are making progress, Steve KW3A
