Just get a external battery charger. Look for a rapid charger and recharge the
AA cells out side the 9000 and us tape to hold the battery compartment door
closed on the radio. Because the door may become loose after switching the
batteries out to recharge them every day or two. Have you upgraded to NiMH
AA cells yet? The NiMH batteries last 1/3 longer than NiCads.

I have a Yupiteru 9000 that has a problem with the squelch cutting out too
early. I used to be able to turn the dial from all the way to the left
and then to about the 12 oclock position before the squelch would cut out,
but now, if I turn all the way to the left and then turn just a little bit
to the right, the squelch cuts out immediately. I can deal with it, but
it seems like it could be fixed.

Also, if it's plugged in to the wall and you bump the scanner, the power
cuts off. Tried a different power supply and still does it. Never cuts
off when it's running on just batteries.

Any ideas would be appreciated...
