My Orion II is experiencing battery backup failure, Ten Tec services advises
sending the transceiver in for repairs, however with all the warnings about
unsettled times at Ten Tec and delayst with service, I'm tempted to change the
battery and maybe the power board by myself.
Mike Chatfield, Can you tell me where your bought the battery and your advise
on self repairs? Did you change out capacitors or power board?
Thanks.....John Bescher, N4DXI

To all..
I finally had the memory backup battery fail on My Orion II. This
battery lasted over 8 years. Thanks for all the info and help on this group.
I located a battery for about $9 plus shipping. Install was 1.2 hours
and its working fine.
Thanks to all for all the info and help on this group.
