Somewhat related - I have a couple of RA5 cartridges
and I changed the batteries about three years ago and
they are still going strong. I figure that since I
lose the sounds on them when I change the batteries I
will just wait till they run out and hope that Sound
Diver saves the patches correctly. - George
