That's not going to be a problem in this application.
I understand that if you look at the battery voltage vs. time for
a given discharge rate, the NiMH cells are no worse (perhaps even
better) than alkaline batteries.? The battery voltage remains at a
useful level longer with the NiMH cells.

If you are using the battery tray, remember, alkaline batteries
put out 1.5 volts, rechargeable only put out 1.2 volts.?

THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO RESPONDED.
I ordered a couple of new FNB-83 batteries.
On another matter -- I have two types of NiMH batteries --
Amazon basics and Eveready.? The Amazon batteries are 2400
mAh; the Eveready batteries are not marked as to capacity.
When I put either of these batteries in the Yaesu AA battery
tray, they are too big to allow the tray to be attached to the
FT-60 -- the batteries are too "fat," the tray will not press
down in place.
Are lower capacity NiMH batteries smaller diameter so they
will allow the tray to be installed?
Thanks.
