I have an FT-50R that I purchased in 1997. I have not used it for 2
years. I have turned it on using DC power supply. The battery is
dead and needs replacement. I find that when I try to transmit via
using the PTT the LCD flashes and the system BEEPS. Their have been
no mods made to the radio. I can recieve just fine. Has anyone
experienced a problem like this? Any help would be much appreciated.
