Both of my Alinco Hand held Dj-560 and Dj-580 will lose there memory when I turn the radio on the memory will be gone, and the battery is charged. Thank you, N7ERW

Go on ebay and finda br1225 replacement, with legs, my DJ580T has the one with one leg on top and one on the bottom with yellow plastic shrink-wrap around the edges of the battery. you have to take the radio to smithereens, ie take off bottom battery plate, take off all knobs - pull straight off, take off antenna, take out all 3 screws on body of radio, then carefully work back off and over the pots where you took off the knobs. there was no marking on my battery, but it is the button-looking thing with the yellow plastic around the edge. carefully de-solder old, put new in, then carefully reassemble radio. top edge has rubber seal, be careful it is in place, if twisted radio will not go back together. battery is about $5 shipped, on ebay.
