Portable VHF COM Transceiver
The IC-A6 is
the direct successors to the ever-popular IC-A3 series of Icom handheld
radios. Just as those products broke new ground with pilot-friendly
features, the IC-A6 continues the tradition by providing even more of
the most pilot-requested features.
Compact, stylish bodyThe
IC-A6 design incorporates the size and durability of the IC-A3 with
improved usability. The IC-A6 includes a large LCD, large speaker and
easy-to-use panel layout. The side of the radio has a non-slip slit to
prevent accidental dropping.
Large alphanumeric LCDAn
easy to read a 6-character 14-segment alphanumeric LCD displays a
variety of information clearly. Both the display and keypad are backlit,
which is a very useful feature for nighttime flying.
Channel recall functionThe
new channel recall function automatically memorizes the last 10 used
channels. You can easily recall those channels by pushing the recall
buttons on the front panel. This makes it very convenient for switching
between several channels at a time, such as NAV channels and COM
channels.
Icom F series battery packs and caseThe
IC-A6 shares the same battery packs and case with Icom’s commercial
range of radios including the IC-F12, F3G, F31G series*. A variety of
battery types are available including Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, and Li-Ion
batteries. The BP-208N, battery case is also available with 6 AA (LR6)
alkaline cells as a backup battery source.
* Uses N-type reinforced battery packs/case.
Simultaneous operation and charge from external power sourceThe
IC-A6 has an external DC power jack that allows operation with the
optional CP-20 cigarette lighter cable with DC-DC converter. This means
that a battery pack can be simultaneously charged during operation.
Dedicated 121.5MHz emergency keyA
dedicated red emergency key programmed with a 121.5MHz homing frequency
is equipped to give you extra confidence in the event of an emergency.
