The IC-A6E stores the last 10 channels used. You can easily recall those channels by pushing the “flip-flop” recallFlip-flop buttons on the front panel. It is convenient for switching between several channels, such as COM channels.

External DC power jack

An external DC power jack allows for operation with the wall charger, BC-110 or the cigarette lighter cable, CP-20. When the battery pack is installed, simultaneous charging during operation is also possible. In addition, an optional battery case, BP-208N, is available.
