3.3.2 CHARGING THE BATTERY
The charger RCH-20 is a dual slot quick charger. The charger will accept a complete
radio or the battery alone (see fig 4). If two batteries are present, the charger will
automatically start fast charging the second battery when the first battery is fully
charged. The first battery will then be trickle charged to keep it fully charged.
The charger will charge a fully discharged battery in approx. 3.5 hours.
