Maybe it's not a 3000 -- I really don't recall -- all I know is that I
unsoldered or cut the leads or somehow removed a NiCad similar to the ones
used in early computers and replaced it with one that had longer leads so it
would be easy to replace next time.

I have an old PCS3000 -- at least I think that's the model number.

In June 2003 we sold our house and moved into an apartment. Then, in
Jan
2005 we moved from NE TN to the Mississippi Gulf Coast and are building
a
house. As a result, all my gear is in storage except for a FT-857D in
my
truck -- so -- I don't recall the Azden model number.

But -- I do recall replacing the battery. I just unsoldered the dead
NiCad
and soldered in one of like voltage. Sort of tight space to work in but
that's all it took.

I have a friend who is using a 2000 as a base right now. He can't
turn off the PS without losing the memory. He hasn't had much luck
finding the battery so he can replace it nor can he find a service or
users manual.

The PCS3000 did'nt have any Nicad inside it. It had a tiny
2 pin plug that you powered via your 12v dc supply which in turn
kept any of the freqcys you put in its 8 chnls in memory.
so we must be talkin about another AZDEN
