[amsat-bb] How to connect DC to ARR preamp or dc injector?

[Ka8syx2003@xxxxxxx]

Hi, can anyone tell me how they've successfully applied DC to their AdvRecResearch preamp?  The wife gave me an ARR 70cm GaAsFET preamp for Christmas, along with a dc injector to send the juice up the pipe from the shack.  All I can see is a stub coming out one side of each little box, and a couple of nuts clenching a solder lug on the other.  Consulting the schematics for the preamp, I see that the Vdc-in stub is actually one lead of a feed-through capacitor.  What is common practice for hooking up power to it?  I'm thinking about soldering the two wires from a red/black power lead to each appropriate terminal on either the injector or the preamp and terminating the power lead with a jack into which I can insert banana plugs with (+) and gnd.  Would this be appropriate?  Opinions on the neatest method out there?  Thanks, everyone!
