This is the CORRECT message., appears normally during the RAM 
Clear reset, and does NOT mean the battery is bad.  See Ten-Tec's 
description at http://rfsquared.com/Orion/help.txt.

Of course, if you really do have a bad battery, that's another issue, 
and I'd think you would see that Battery Failure message not just 
during the VFOB LCK reset procedure.
