For example, doing the math, if the radio draws 25 mA from the “B” battery at moderate volume, the battery would be worn out in about 20 hours of playing.
Is this the same “B” pack that fell into the snow last winter?

Yes it is, but I've since then installed all new batteries, that I had bought from Ace Hardware, because they had their house brand batteries on sale, that was about 3 months ago.
But I'm hoping that when I dropped those previous batteries in the snow that I didn't short something out, which is entirely possible.
