[amsat-bb] Re: Technical question - FT736-R backup battery replacement

Hey Mal,

It's on the control unit. Part of the front panel. It's a lithium CR2032.

Remove the top and bottom covers and loosen the two screws that hold the front panel and fold it down.

Does anyone know a) where the backup lithium cell battery is and b)what is the replacement?

The operating manual doesn't give me a clue.

This old thing still works but needs a replacement. Thanks for your help.
