Hi Butch,

That was a no no.  The screws on the sides open the box.  The screws on the 
top screw in to the board standoffs.  There are four screws on each side, 
they are flat headed screws two along the top edge and one at each end.  I 
hope that your meter is still attached to the case, when I got mine, the 
meter was rattling around inside the box because the hot glue did not hold 
the meter in place.  I have tried the 209 with the Mcount freq counter and 
it works great!  I haven't found anyone yet to make the mods to the 209, but 
I'm still looking for someone.

I'm wondering what screws to remove to get the 209 apart to put in
batteries?  I took out the 4 screws on top, hope that wasn't a no no, but
nothing seemed to come apart.  Stuff like this drives me nuts.
