Legal RF output on the Amateur Radio Service is 1500 watts, my friend. If I put a 2.4 GHz setup in my xB, I could have a microwave-toaster. :D

Nice!
Then you're probably better of tapping right off the battery (like you mention in your other post). Through an inline fuse of course.

I think that's the plan. I found a how-to on another xB forum tht showed me how to route the cable through one of the grommits in the firewall. I already have a special cable w/ fuse for my Icom VHF/UHF rig.

Hopefully I won't go overboard with the radios. I don't want you to pull into the parking lot at work and see my XBox resemble this vehicle:

You know we have an obligation to shoot you if you do that, right?

If you want an zOMFG! experience, check out the parking lot at your local hamfest. Or surf over to www.hamsexy.com.
