The battery in the Paragon is inside one of the chips on a daughter

the rear of the Logic board, and I saw an outfit on the internet
(something
like Batteries R Us :) that had those. You'll need to search on
battery
sites with that chip number.
The Pargaon came with two versions of the battery. The earlier one
used a standard 9v battery. The later one added a charging circuit and
replaced the battery with a 9v NiCad.
I did a quick web search and found this page:

If you look at the picture of the rig being placed on the bench for
the first time, you can see the battery quite clearly in the center of
the radio (from right to left) in the rear. If you look at the front
just left of the display, and follow it back, you'll see it.
He also discusses the charging modification later in the text.

situation. i.e possessing less facts or information than can be found
in the Wikipedia.
