Default charging question

Brand new Sanyo 2300 NiMH.
Instead of using my Hobbico field charger at its lowest setting of .2 amps I want to use my old wall TX RX wall charger at 50 milliamps.

The charger says its for Nicads.. is it safe to use for my NiMH??

am I correct here?

wall charger at 50 milliamps is 1/4 of the lowest charge on my Field charger which is .2 amps??

Its best, especially for the first charge, to charge low and slow?
I'll charge the 1st time for 46 hours on the wall charger, after that I'll use the lowest setting on the field charger???
