Hello Brian.  I finally own a Kenwood TS-590SG.  Still have my FT-980 on the air too.

Gary,
 
You are correct about its location. It is a coin shape but is soldered in. The battery measures 3.26V so I don’t think it’s the problem. I’ll replace it anyway and make sure to touch up any questionable solder connections.
 
Thank you. Brian WA5UEK
