3000mah NiMhs - charge at 3amps and use peak sensitivity of 3 - 5mv/cell. If they're not getting too hot (should be around 120-130F), can try charging at higher charge rate, maybe try at 4amps.
On the 1200s, I'd start with a long slow charge at 200-300ma. After that, I'd cycle them at 1amp charging and discharging. I'd try 3 cycles to start and look at the discharge numbers. If they're still increasing, try few more cycles.
Discharge to 0.9v/cell and charge with s peak sensitivity of 3 -5 mv/cell.
