The optional FBA-39 Battery Case allows receive monitoring using three "AA" size Al-
kaline batteries. Alkaline batteries can also be used for low power transmission in an
emergency. The power output will only be selectable 1 W/50 mW (for 50/144/430 MHz
FM) or 500 mW/50 mW (for 222 MHz FM: USA version), or 1 W fixed (for 50 MHz
AM).

1. Lift up the lower right corner of the rubber cover, and then open the cover (Figure 1).
2. Referring to Figure 2, slide the batteries into the FBA-39 as shown in the illustration,
with the Negative [ – ] side of the batteries touching the spring connections inside the
FBA-39.
3. Close the rubber cover.
4. Install the FBA-39 in the transceiver in the same manner as the FNB-101LI.
The FBA-39 does not provide connections for charging, since Alkaline cells cannot be
re-charged. Therefore, the PA-44, E-DC-5B, or E-DC-6 may safely be connected to the
EXT DC jack when the FBA-39 is installed (E-DC-5B and E-DC-6 are usable only in
the USA/EXP market).
Notes:
The FBA-39 is designed for use only with AA-type Alkaline cells.
If you do not use the VX-8DR/DE for a long time, remove the Alkaline batteries from
the FBA-39, as battery leakage could cause damage to the FBA-39 and/or the trans-
ceiver.
