User manual ICOM IC-RP1520

[. . . ] * At 50mW output using external speaker. 1300 memory channels with 22 memory banks With 1300 alphanumeric memory channels, 50 scan edges and 200 auto write memories, the IC-RP1520 gives you flexible scanning. Use the bank link scan feature to choose from and connect any of the 22 memory banks. VSC (Voice Squelch Control) The VSC opens the squelch only when a modulated signal is detected and ignores unmodulated beat noise. It is a handy feature for those listeners who are scanning for talk, news and music, but not data bursts or beacons. Multiple power choices The IC-RP1520 can be powered by rechargeable Ni-MH cells, or with alkaline batteries. [. . . ] When used the optional drop-in charger stand BC-194 with the AC adapter or cigarette lighter cable, you can easily start charging the Ni-MH cells, while eliminating the need to connect the power source to the DC power jack of the receiver.
