Hi, just looking for some easy info, I picked up a Terk FM 9300 without the AC adapter and I can't find any information on what the wall wart output is supposed to be? Can anyone with a FM 9300 post the output info from the adapter sticker up here or send me a PM with the info?

Thanks

I see no one has answered yet. I've been looking all over the net but there isn't any info on that one. I have a Terk powered indoor, but not the same model so I don't want to give you false info and burn the thing up. Doesn't yours have any info at the power jack or on the bottom of the antenna? Sometimes it's embossed on the item.The only other thing is to email TERK. I'm sure someone there would respond.

Mine uses a 12 volt Recoton transformer that plugs into the balun, but it is a Parsec antenna. No help there. It looks just like a TERK.

There's one for sale now on eBay:

Maybe the seller will help you out.

I have a similar Terk FM antenna (but doesn't indicate the model #) that uses a 12 vdc 200ma output AC adapter.

My experience with AC adapters for a variety of electronic hardware is that the connector size and type is specific to the output. In other words, if you go to Rat Shack and get an adapter with a connector that fits the socket in your FM antenna it shuold be OK.

I did email that seller and he responded with the specs off the wall wart, 12 VDC at 50 mA. I had already become impatient so, I ended up changing the plug on a Code A Phone 10V DC 500 mA adapter and it worked fine.

The Terk does do what it's supposed to from what I can tell. I turn the knob and I can watch the signal strength meter respond. So far, no complaints for my $5 purchase price.

As little as I listen to FM radio, I bought this primarily to use on the bench when testing new units. My indoor dipole doesn't like all the metal surrounding it and the reception is not great.

Thanks for the help.
