Trying to clear out the beginings of a rat's nest:
Is there any reason why I couldn't put a T-tap from the GMRS into the CB wiring?
I've switched to a stock President McKinley, it is wired to Aux3 and grounded to the chassis in the passenger-side footwell. It has a 6 amp fuse, but is dual-use for 120-240v
The GMRS is the now popular Midland MXT275 15-watt. It is also fused, but has a 12v plug. I think it is 3.5 amps on high-power transmit.
Is it safe to put a T-tap from the GMRS to anywhere on the CB lines between the CB fuse and Aux3, and on the CB ground to chassis?
Ive run it through my head a dozen times, and it seems to make sense, but this kind of wiring isn't exactly my forte. The CB and GMRS only pull full power on transmit, and Aux3 is 15 amps. But I never can remember exactly how it is that electric currents flow.
Thanks for any advice.
