Slightly off topic, but I'm running out of ideas of where to check on
this...

I purchased a new, in the box multimeter some three or fours years back and
have tried off and on to find the proper batteries for it with no luck.  It
is a AN/USM - 223.  I've used to many time for voltage measurements, as it
needs no batteries for that, but does for the ohmmeter section.  I thought
by chance someone else on the list might have one and know of a source for
these batteries.  It requires two type BA1312 which look about the size of a
AA, and one BA2042 or BA42, which is nearly the size of a "C" cell.  The guy
that sold these meters had hundreds of them in the sealed box which he
intended to sell at many hamfests.

Thanks for any help,

Brian / W5AMI
