Great Radio at good price

  • By Jon a Thorp T18 flyer from Fallbrook CA USA on Wednesday, December 22, 2010
  • Pros: easy installation, easy to use
  • Cons:
  • Review: [NOTE: This review was written for the previous generation IC-A210 model] I upgraded to the Icom from a Narco Escort2 built in 1974. Having an experimental means this is not a real chore. The Narco had worked OK for 3 years from first flight, but on the last few fights I was getting comments about clarity. That meant time for an upgrade. The new radio is in and appears to be working fine. No long trips since installation, but local traffic hears me clearly, and the receiver picks up aircraft that are about 100 mile away in the pattern of a different airport.

It is a pretty amazing radio

  • By JimS on Thursday, September 10, 2026
  • Pros: Quality, price, customer service, very good reception, intercom included, easy to install. Electrical diagrams are clear for every configuration.
  • Cons: User manual is not intended for first time users. Call technical support.
  • Review: This is a great radio, it works perfect. People mentions having trouble with the PPT and having to install a relay to ground and I found that is not necessary, just use a good gauge wire like gauge 18 and you will not have any issue. The only issue is that the manual is written for people that already know how the radio works and it is not written as a user guide manual, therefore, you will have to call technical support so that they can explain to you what to do. Fortunately, the tech support people are very patient and understanding and always ready to help. Ask me how I know! When you call them press #3 and then press#3 again. You will reach somebody that cares about your problem.

Good radio, useless intercom

  • By Jimmie Blackwell from Cedar Park TX USA on Monday, February 14, 2011
  • Pros: Good receiver
  • Cons: Useless intercomm
  • Review: [NOTE: This review was written for the previous generation IC-A210 model] I decided on this radio because of the vox activated intercom. The noise level in my Sonex makes the intercom unusable. Icom missed the mark on this radio and I wasted $1200.00. I want Icom to
    fix the design flaw and send me a new radio.
