*New to 24v world.. as well as MUTT

Is there a fuse box panel to run accessory power to items like 24v stereo- or FM Ham radio?

*Ill have to go slow and think clear..

In general, my PRC77 is for looks only..in support of AB-15 antenna...
However.. Id like to integrate a Ham mobile system.. there may well be a 24v option
and that solves everything. Mutt provides 24v power.. civi radio hides in ammo can.
