Hi Steve:
The Kenwood power supply I have has a half inch cable with I believe
six conductors in it going to the radio. So, those chokes I ordered should
fit great. I am interested in finding some RF suppressors for the TV, DVD
and Stereo though. The thing is that they belong to other family members.
So, no soldering or any thing like that. Smile. Any ideas on where to go on
entertainment centers? I come in on the TV screen.
God bless,
Mark
