I was cleaning around the shack and had the 12 VDC power removed from my Paragon 585 (not a Paragon II) for an hour or so. When I hooked it back up and turned on the 585, the controls are not working

When you turned it back on is it really on? If the 9 volt battery were dead this should not effect operation of the radio or display, only the loss of calendar, clock and frequency memories. Perhaps

Hi Charles, The radio is getting power, the meter pilot lamp, LSB and 2.4 LEDs are lighted as well as VFO A and TIME. There is audio output and no frequency or time/date dipslay and no response to an

That's a mystery. Did you try entering a frequency using the front panel buttons? Perhaps something jiggled loose or maybe you need to re-seat some of the connectors inside the radio starting with th

I believe it may be solder connections along the display board. Wasn't there something a while back about that?? The game was to resolder all the connections and the display will return. Ron wb1hga _

Hi Ken... (Re Paragon) One of the things that can cause the symptoms you describe is insufficient filtering of the power supply DC. This can happen in the early matching power supplies in the followi

Ken, This happened to me once. Did everything you described. Replaced rechargable battery, still no joy. Then tried powering up with out battery connected - worked fine. Connected new battery (while

When I purchased my Paragon about 5 months ago it came with a warning label inside near the battery holder regarding use of alkaline batteries. Use only rechargeable battery and the procedure stated

I don't have one, and in fact don't think I've even seen one, but I can relay to the group the information others have posted and I have read elsewhere. When the Paragon was produced it had the provi

Thank you all for the reminder! I had recently put in an alkaline battery as a temporary replacement until I could find another rechargeable 9V battery. This evening I opened up the Paragon. Sure eno

Thanks also for the tip on putting the battery in a bag. As I think more about the Paragon battery issues, the following come to mind: In a pinch, an alkaline battery could be used, if you make up an

If you use the old cheap regular battery instead of an alkaline, it will not hurt it to charge it. All the old regular non-alkaline batteries are rechargable to a small extent. In fact it will probab
