        Hello Tom, we were saying ! 

 TW> Sounds you nmight want to pose that question of Battery substitution
 TW> to ICOM in an "E" mail.

        That was attempted too and no good information came of it. You
  would behave the same too to protect your market for a $177.00 pack.

 TW> BUT it sounds like the Radio has a smart charge control chip inside.
 TW> And some say Charging NiMH batteries in a "Smart" NiCad charger works
 TW> fairly well it would be worth a try.

        In the very near future, it will be done. I already got the NiMH
  cells, 12 of them and the pack needs 11 of them, on eBay from
          onlybatteries.com
 They are in Montreal but only deal via eBay. Strange !
     
 Hey, this nice Thinkpad is in 
  full use again.
