How much power does such a radio need? At what voltage (or just I and U)?
Ever since USB-C powerbanks with up to 20 V from PD are a thing, I use them for as much as possible.
Voltage is generally standardised to 13.8 V (don't ask me why).
I don't know what exact radio that is, but it looks like it can probably transmit at 50 W.
It looks like for FM it can go up to 100w.
