[Motorola] ^^ HT manuals

[ersmar at comcast.net]

Gents:

    I have an armful (literally) of HT220's and HT500's that I'd like to 
recrystal to the Amateur bands (2M and 440.)  Can someone point me to a 
source for manuals (and elements?) for these things?  Also, I'd be 
interested in any and all ideas about homebrewing battery sets as well. 
I've done a bit of battery improvisation on old military squad radios, so I 
am confident this can be done.  Thanks.

P.S.  I'm new to this reflector and haven't gone through the archives yet.
