ICOM IC-A4 VHF Air Band Transceiver
Maximize
your ground crew communications
Rugged construction
The one piece, die-cast
aluminum chassis and polycarbonate front panel provide the durability needed
for reliable operation under the most demanding conditions.
Simple operation
Reliable communication
is essential in the hectic airport work environment. The IC-A4's large
display is easy to read and shows operating status at a glance. Up/down
keys allow you to change channels quickly and easily. Up to 19 memory channels
can be programmed for easy recall.
PC programmable
PC programming and cloning
allows you to customize each radio to your needs. Transmit can be inhibited
by channel. (These features must be activated by your dealer.)
Alpha memory
The channel name function
allows you to assign up to 5-character alpha names to each channel. This
provides a convenient way to remember channel contents and to recognize
selected channels at a glance.
Compact body
Measuring only 58(W) ×
140.5(H) × 32.3(D) mm*, the IC-A4 is
truly portable. Small enough to fit into a pocket.
