From the manual, page 7, I found the note below.

If a power failure occurs or if the power
cord is disconnected, the scanner's
memory backup circuit keeps information
in memory for up to 3 days.

Note: The memory backup circuit begins
to protect memory within a few
minutes after you plug in the scanner.

The behavior described implies that a capacitor is used to backup memory,
not a battery. If you keep the radio plugged into a live AC outlet it should
retain memory when the radio is turned off.


However I never disconnected the AC, it was plugged in the entire
time.... Thanks for the info.
