I have an Apelco 520 radio. Yes the AA batteries are a tough fit into the backup battery case, but be gentle and persistent, and you will succeed. Re: the three battery power indicator bars, the manual states three bars show full batteries, and that it will quickly drop to two bars. My unit does the same thing. I have had good luck with this radio. I like its small size (fits the pocket on my PFD), power and set of features. Good Luck. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.paddlewise.net/ ***************************************************************************Received on Sun Sep 12 1999 - 22:26:55 PDT
