Well I have an old Icom Ic-A22 handheld I bought years ago as a backup, that I never really used on a regular basis. Now that I am getting my glider rating in a 2-33 without a radio I use the radio on a regular basis.
Here is my problem. I basically let the rechargable battery pack sit for long periods of time, and charge it up from time to time (6 months between charges if that). Now the thing won't hold hardly any charge anymore. I'll probably end up buying a new battery, but are there any tricks to reviving a NiMh battery? Also what is the best way to get good life on these things.
