Re: OT: Looking for help with Kenwood Handheld
Nice! I wasn't aware of their site. I've gotten in touch with them regarding a CR1220 with tabs. Thanks! Barry - N4BUQ

Re: OT: Looking for help with Kenwood Handheld
I didn't know such a thing was being made. Nice to know. Hopefully it won't come to that and I can get a battery with tabs that will work (and I think I see some being offered). Thanks, Barry - N4BUQ

Re: OT: Looking for help with Kenwood Handheld
Yes - It is a 12mm (maybe 12.5mm) battery. From what I'm seeing, the solder tabs on those are much more in line with the ones on my battery. Thanks so much for setting me straight on that! Barry -

GA, CR2032 seems to me is somewhat big, perhaps a CR1220 type fits better. Regards Guillermo - LU5WE.

Re: OT: Looking for help with Kenwood Handheld
Barry, If your TH-28A is anything like the Realistic/Radio Shack HTX-202 and HTX-404 HTs, I replaced the internal tabbed 3 volt Lithium cell used in these rigs with a popular CR2032 coin cell and

I didn't know that could be done as a service like that. We have a Batteries Plus but not sure if they'd do that. Thanks for the tip! Barry - N4BUQ

Re: OT: Looking for help with Kenwood Handheld
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

Re: OT: Looking for help with Kenwood Handheld
If you have a Batteries-Plus, or Batteries & Bulbs store near you, they might have one. They have the ability to spot-weld tabs on about any battery. [email protected]> wrote:

OT: Looking for help with Kenwood Handheld
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

Re: The Drake 2B and its Frequency Spread Limitations
Like Mike says, no crystal needed on 80. The 2B is an 80 meter receiver with a crystal controlled converter on the front end for the other bands. 80 meters should be the first position on the left of

I see the 2B receiver discussed with a 80m switch and crystal position. My 2B has neither. It also has a modified front panel that has a ¡°overlay¡± under the main frequency dial and frequency
