I have two venerable VX-150s (opened up for CAP use) and an FT-60R and have been charging them on the SBH-13 battery charger. Of late, I have noticed that in high power mode, all three are only putting out about 1.5 to 2.0 watts. The batteries are about 1400-1650 mAh and are very old -- about 4-5 years though little used.
Could I reasonably expect better performance and higher power with similar batteries (i.e., 1400-2000 mAh) and otherwise what would be the recommended course of action to restore the three HTs?
Thanks in advance.
