Hi, again, everyone.

This week-end, I put the Tentech Scout that I bought from the recent estate 
sale on the air.  Made a 20-meter SSB contact to a special event station in 
Long Island New York.  He gave me a 5 by 7, which isn't bad considering the 
maximum output power for the Scout is 50 watts.

Anyway, in looking over the Scout, I notice that it requires a 12-amp round 
AGC fuse in the positive lead of the DC power cord.  I have 10 and 15-amp 
fuses here, but no 12-ampers, which I believe will be hard to come by.

I certainly wouldn't want to put a 15-amp fuse in there, but could go with a 
10-amper, if needed at least in a pinch.

If anyone knows of a good source of 12-amp AGC round fuses, please let me 
know.
