I have an Alinco DJ-F1 handheld that is 15 years old and works but I am having trouble locating a new battery pack. #The one I have is part# EPB-16N. Any ideas?

Thanks & 73, Rick - KK4GV

Do you have the battery pack or is it missing. If you have the old pack, the guts can be changed out. There are a number of companies that supply them. This Outfit has the entire pack for $59.

Thanks - I have never had much luck putting new cells in old packs but at least now I know where I can buy a new pack. Now I am even considering the fact that a new 2m HT can be had for as little as $129 or so. It probably does not make sense to buy a battery for a 15 year old HT but I am sure a new ham could power it up in the shack for a starter radio so maybe I'll just save it for that. Thanks again, Rick KK4GV
