While retaining basic features of its
popular predecessor the IC-R5, the IC-R6 contains many improvements
including 100 channel per second scanning speed, 1300 memory channels, 15
hours of continuous receive capability, optional drop-in charger stand and
voice control squelch.
All these new features combined with a high degree of usability means that
the IC-R6 will be equally at home with any casual listener of broadcast
stations or the serious scanning enthusiast seeking a pocket sized quality
receiver.
If you are looking for the best
AirBand performance from the smallest package, then the IC-R6
is it. However, bear in mind that the lack of a numeric keypad might
mean that for some users, it could be less user-friendly than Yaesu's
VR-500
