Single band/Dualwatch operation
Dualwatch operation monitors two frequencies simultane-
ously. The IC-E2820 has two independent receiver circuits:
left band, and right band
(available frequencies, operating mode
and functions are different depending on bands)
.
Single band operation is useful when only one frequency is
being watched.

Diversity operation
Diversity receiving compares the receiving signal strength
from two different antennas, [ANT1 TX/RX] and [ANT2 RX],
and automatically selects the strongest signal. This feature is
useful when you are listening in a moving vehicle or the trans-
mitting station itself is moving. Diversity receiving is available
on the 127 MHz, 136 MHz, 146 MHz, 375 MHz, 440 MHz and
500 MHz bands on FM, FM-N and DV (optional) only.
