JP>        You know better. But what about using a NiCad charger on NiMh
JP>        cells ?

 I thouhgt I mentioned it befop4e but it basicly is really not
 recommended unless the charger is a modern type including close Voltage
 control and posabibly cell temperature. That sais since the Biggest
 problem is Cell heating using a litle less then 1/10 MaH curent and an
 approprate Timed charge as indicated by the Cell MaH rating can do in a
 pinch.
This is assuming that you normaly discharge the batteries to some low
voltage cutoff point or warning on the Radio.

BUT really a professional automatic Charger/Discharge unit designed for
Both NiCads and NiMH is strongly recomended.
