PNI HP62 cb radio ?
The PNI is a hand held unit. Will this power supply work to use it in the home with external antenna? Any input is appreciated.

That power supply does 10 amps.
That should be more than enough to run a 4 watt radio. I guess you are using a lighter plug.

@OldSoul
Based on the information you provided, the BYGD AC to DC Converter should work for powering the PNI HP62 CB radio in your home with an external antenna.
The BYGD AC to DC Converter is capable of converting AC power from a standard wall outlet (ranging from 100V to 240V) into DC power at 12V with a maximum output current of 10A (120W). This should provide enough power for the PNI HP62 CB radio, which typically operates on a 12V power source.
To use it with the CB radio and an external antenna, you would connect the output of the BYGD converter to the power input of the CB radio using the appropriate cable or connector. Additionally, you'll need to connect the external antenna to the CB radio

Thanks, after reading a lot it kinda scared me as wasted money so I bought this instead. It will last longer I hope and can power other stuff. I screw myself by cheaping out sometimes.

That radio is only 4 watts and needs very little power to operate. Most any AC to DC power supply will work.
I think you will have harder issues hooking up an external antenna.
