unseal it.

It doesn't look any worse then the Apelco I rebuilt.

BTW, the Uniden service center in Texas sell them for about $35, shipping anywhere for $8.

Hey Booby can you help me by getting a new Nicad battery for my Uniden
handheld VHF? It's a HH-940. I think the part number is 150-BP940.

I can't seem toi get hold of one here in NZ!

These are not expensive and work very well. Standing on the breakwater at City
island I could easily see moorings, and shore detail on hart island. A passing
boat was virtually invisible to the naked eye, but with the Night Owl I could
see it very well, even the two people on board.
I've used a very expensive Gen 3 Newcon and of course it's far superior. But
for the type of sailing most of us do this is a very useful little gadget and
loads of fun. My model is water resistant. Check one out! Typically under $250.

Believe me, I looked hard at it. The break it open would destroy the
gasket seal onto the radio... have you got a URL for the Texas place?

I can get you the phone # for the BoatUS here, or I can even call them to make
sure before you spend on the call.
Or just contact Uniden.
