Hi Nader,

I'm using the Icom IC-R20 as a receiver/voice recorder for portable satellite operation. My experience is that is works very well. I use an Arrow antenna (2m/70cm) and receive all the LEOs without much problem. It also worked very well in mode V/S on AO-51 with a 13cm down converter. I use a Yaesu FT-817ND as transceiver (5W).

I really like the built-in voice recorder. I don't have to write anything down during a QSO as I can listen back the recording after the pass and update my log.
