This website has great links to info on which sized batteries (all on this page) you would need for so many hours of operation at different duty cycles (Standard & Field Day). There also links to info on Radio-Battery compatibility for all of the standard radio makes and models (Icom, Kenwood, Yaesu, Elecraft, Flex Radio, Powerwerx, TYT, Alinco). Also, there is a great link with a “Solar How-to Guide”.
