A little heads-up if you're using batteries.. on my 3000, the battery feed-through socket had developed leakage paths between lugs and between lugs and chassis. With batteries installed, there was 200 microamps of leakage with the radio off, which woulda drained the pack in a few weeks. Another 3000-1 owner also mentioned having a leakage problem in the feed-through socket that drained the batteries.
On mine, i replaced the plug and socket with model airplane style connectors since original parts aren't available.
No more leakage.
