The DR 620 is a removable head 2 meter 440 FM dual band mobil. The 3 amp power supply won't be big enough for this radio.
Go to address....www.radioamateur.eu/schemi/Vari/Alinco....for the manuel on DR 620 T/E.
The radio has been out of production for quite some time as well as the company no longer markets radios.
The D70 may not be the correct model number according to the lists I find.
Can't tell if your a Ham so don't go on the air with it unless you have a ticket.
Good luck.

Yeah, I thought it was probably wrong. One of the big Japanese amateur radio manufacturers giving up would have made a huge news splash on the online amateur sites.

You'll probably find the Alinco D70 is a DX-70, google it for more info.

If it's the Alinco DX-70, then it's a 'mobile style' HF rig. It's a bit 1990's '10m multi-mode' looking, if you know what I mean. But they work really well.
