Hi All,

Got fed up will all the cigarette type adaptors - so I gave myself a task me a task to fix it. Solution was to use Anderson PowerPoles, a 12V distribution panel from the Ham Radio guys and a 12V powered USB hub for a normal car. Much happier with this, plus I treated myself to some good quality USB cables. So glad I did all this, makes life a lot easier. Still a lot of cables, but I do need to bring the OTA inside. (All on a HEQ5 pro with a switching mode power supply). 25m USB repeater means I can now run this from indoors too ... :-)
