Does anyone know what battery I need for the memory in my 2510 and its location?
Thanks in advance!

Ok, when I turn the radio on, the frequency display blinks several times before showing the frequency. I thought it was probably the battery, but since it is not, any ideas?

I've an idea what it could be, but I don't want to steer ya wrong, so I won't say anything. Maybe one of the techs will see this and answer your question.........but don't hold your breath.........

My HTX 100 did that one time. The manual (p.36) says: If your transceiver is subject to display lockup....
1)turn off power
2) remove tuning control knob
3) use a metal probe(paper clip) to short the exposed jumper to the radio's chasis.
4)replace the tuning knob
5) turn on the radio to confirm the radio display is working properly.

I am paraphrasing here but the 5 steps are what I did when the HTX had problems. I think a 2510 is just about the same radio.

Thank you both for the response and info. I will try shorting the jumper, and will post the result here.
