Re: Battery Charger
Henry Dralle
Why not use a Maha C777 plus charger for $59 from HRO. It charges the battery seperate from the radio and conditions it as well. I charge all of my packs on it and it works great. Batteries are charged in 2 hours or less and there is thermal protection for the batteries. Also there are expandabilty options in the charger and the ability to use it with a 12v power source.

Perhaps you are referring to a posting or article elsewhere. If so, can you provide a reference or link. I am most interested ... and assume the "3 technologies" to which you refer are: NiCD, NiMH and Li-ON. In talking this afternoon with HRO (ordering a Diamond SRH-77CA) they advise that it is imminent but not yet there. Seems a bit pricey at $79.95, but ... I see no other choices on the horizon. It was also their impression that it was a battery-only (as opposed to whole radio) "drop in" unit. That would work for me. Less bulky and thus more easily packed for trips? The FBA-25A could easily serve to power the unit while the FNB-83 was getting charged.

I acquired my FT-60R a couple weeks ago, at the time I bought it I also purchased a MH-C777+II. For those of you not familiar with this charger it is a universal battery charger-analyzer that will charge and analyze any battery 1.2-14V NiMh, NiC, Li-Ion, & Li-Po. Point being with a factory battery or battery case you cannot ask for more, If you want an idiot & bullet proof charger try this one out. Now on to my comment/ question, is anyone else having a problem with the rubber gasket that goes around the battery, the one on mine will not stay put (PITA) , I also changed the antenna for a comet SMA-24 and now I have the best portable I have ever had. As a parting note Thank You for supporting a free exchange of posts that are not groomed only to the thoughts of one, but serves the many. 73 De N7AZN BK Ferguson Glendale, AZ. ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 3 Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2004 03:49:13 -0000 From: "ochf13" <ochf13@...> Subject: RT Systems We are happy to announce that the FT-60 Programmer has been released.
