Subject: Orion Loosing Memories


I have an Orion that is loosing memories every few days. When I turn the rig on 
all the settings are gone. I have changed the software from the beta back to 
2062A, but the same thing happens. The settings are also lost in User 1. After 
resetting, the Orion works fine. Then a few days go by and when I turn it on 
the settings are gone. I use the rig every day, it seems to keep the settings 
for three or four days.

The rig was new in 2002. Could the internal battery be gone? How long should 
the battery last?

That's how a rig with a bad memory battery tends to act.
