[ICOM] Battery Needed

[William Diamond]

Hi Group,

As to worth, I guess I was thinking about the multi featured HT"s that are
being sold brand new for 89.00.

There is very little 2M by hams in this area and I probably haven't spent 30
min on VHF in my life.

I did order a new battery case for NiCad's today for about 22.00,

Now to satisfy those that are wondering about the 2M by hams in the area,
there are Truckers and similar types using 2M (unlicensed) around these
parts so several of the repeaters have been turned off.

I must admit that this 02 is mint, not a mark on it and the plastic covering
never had been removed... Also it is big enough that my old numb fingers and
poor eyes could still use..

Not sure why cost of a battery would be more
than the O2AT is worth.  Any working HT should
be worth replacing the battery.  Lots of places
sell the inserts to replace the dead cells.

Hi Folks,

In a weak moment, I bought out an estate with some ham gear.  There is an
Icom IC02AT handy.

Does anyone have a battery laying around for this beast??  The orig is
shorted. It will not take a charge and even if 12V DC is plugged into the
pack, the rig will not turn on.

The rig works fine with the batt off and 12 V DC plugged into the top of the
rig.

I am looking for something cheap as the cost of a new batt exceeds the worth
or the radio.
