[aprssig] Best TH-D7A after-market battery

[Brian B. Riley]

I have used the Maha PB39H NiMH in 6 volt 1800 mah ... for years in my  
two D7s and they are great. At 6v they only put out a little over 3  
watts but they last a long time and so far in use I never have notice  
the difference between 3w and 5 watts ....
