The Omni VI uses a common lithium button cell in a holder. East to change.
Stores the time and band stack register information.
The Paragon II stores the same info in the Dallas Ram Chip. I am guessing
that the Omni 5 is similar to the Paragon II? The early Paragon used a
nine volt battery, and it was recommended to keep the rig supplied with 12
VDC power to conserve battery backup life.
I could be wrong on a few points, but I am sure someone will correct me if
that is so.

What Omni V functionality is lost when that internal RAM chip battery goes
dead?
How is that functionality implemented in the Omni VI?
