Status: offline 		You're going to have to send the radio in to service. Normally when you reverse the polarity of the battery it will burn out a couple of the IC's in the radio. The average cost of repair for this is around $21 if only the IC's were damaged.

Status: offline 		No. Mail it in with a note describing your problem and contact information. The tech will contact you with a final estimate for repairs and return shipping. At that time he can take a credit card number from you.
