[amsat-bb] Re: Satellites and Icom IC-R20 receiver

[Andre PH7AT]

Hi Luciano,

I use the Icom IC-R20 in my portable satellite setup and I think it's 
great. I use an Arrow portable 2m/70cm antenna.

The great thing about this receiver is the built-in voice recorder. I 
can focus on making QSOs and don't have to write down anything as I'm 
busy enough pointing the antenna and tuning the transceiver and receiver 
for doppler ;)

I haven't tried it on HF though.

73,
