Yeasu FT767GX Backup Battery Replacement
(click on pictures for larger image)

 
 
The rig opens like a book. Be careful not to damage the tuner wires or the power supply connections.  

The first battery is the main system backup. It's a small button cell. The solution is to seperate the leads from the cell.

. slice" the welded leads from the body of the batttery. An external battery holder from Radio Shack will hold 2 AA batteries.  
 
 
The tuner has a solder tab CR2025 battery with odd spaced tabs. A button cell holder is an easy fix.  

A small hole is drilled to the right for the cell holder negative side. The solder masking is removed around the hole on the trace side.

. The cell holder fits perfectly within the space of the old battery.
