David,
Just so you know, that garbage got inserted somewhere between my phone and the Matronics server. I looked up my response in Matt's archive. Not only do the extra characters show up in my reply, they also show up in your original message, which was quoted in my reply. It appears that at least some of the extra characters are HEX versions of ascii punctuation characters. (ex: 2E is ascii for a period.) Since they show up in the quoted text of your original post, the message had to have been trashed at some point during its trip from my phone to the Matronics server.
Were you able to sort out the actual message? (I cleaned it up below.)

Subject: Hardwire an old ICOM IC-A21 handheld radio
I would like to provide power to an older ICOM A21 handheld radio in my
plane outfitted with an B&C SD-8, in the case of radio battery failure.
The radio came with a wall plug AC to DC adapter that puts out 13.5v at
1000mA. How can I hardwire power to the radio and make sure it limits the
current so I don't smoke my radio? Can I just cut the cord off the AC-DC
adapter and run it to a fuse block with a 1 amp fuse?
Thanks, David

It should not have been necessary for you to explain or apologize. I was able to read and understand your initial response by simply ignoring the extra characters which I would have expected any reasonable person to do.
Thank you for your many helpful responses and please don’t let the few ungrateful souls stop you.
