My many thanks to all who offered suggestions when I asked for help a few weeks
ago when trying to identify the TX problem with my handheld.
I'm ashamed to admit that I don't remember who suggested that the battery pack,
(original 3 yr old NiCad), might be the problem.
This was right on the money! I used fresh alkalines in the back up power pack
and checked the TX function against a couple of handhelds and a panel mount whilst
down at SEE this weekend and got a nice nice clear signal.
I've been roaming the web, (Google), looking for a new power pack and found good
prices from the NiCad Lady and Sabah Oceanics. Any input on these sources or
suggestions for other vendors will be appreciated.
Thanks to all who responded. Fly safe.

Batteries America. Good source that can offer packs for almost anything, and give
a choice of NiMh, Nicad, Lithium, and various capacities. Good prices and
service, as well as advice.
