Hi Don; Happy to hear that the battery problem seems to be fixed. I can't help but ask, what amateur radio news line?

I removed the battery and then listened to the Amateur Radio Newsline and then put the battery back onto the radio. The radio came right up when I hit the on button and seems to be working perfectly now. Probably something glitched when charging the battery. I'll know for sure that everything is fine after I recycle the battery and see how it takes a charge. Many thanks, Don W6SMB On Thu, 24 Nov 2005 19:41:14 -0000, Ray T.

The battery went flat the other day and I put it on charge. The radio does come on when the charger is plugged in, but there seems to be no charging to the battery itself as the radio won't fire up if I unplug the charger. I haven't had any problems with the battery in the past and it seems to have been holding a charge as it should. Not sure if a reset would do any good in this case. The radio is about 18 months old or there abouts. It's really odd that it should have happened this suddenly. Any suggestions? Thanks, Don W6SMB
