I've seen some of those but most of them have rather larger and wider-spaced solder tabs.? I'm attaching a picture of what's in my radio.? I might be able to trim the tabs as it appears that may have been what was done to these from the factory.? I'm pretty sure it's a CR-2032 but the part number in the service manual doesn't show up anywhere I've looked.
I found one for my FT-470 on Amazon. Gamers have lots of devices with these sorts of batteries.?

This is the only amateur radio group of which I'm a member so I'm looking for a bit of help. Is there an appropriate group for older Kenwood hand-helds?
I have a TH-28A that needs an internal lithium battery and am having no luck finding a suitable replacement. If someone can point me to a group or, even better, point me to a source for those batteries, I would appreciate it.
Note that I can find all sorts of lithium coin cells with solder tabs but none of the ones I find match the configuration of the one in my TH-28A.
