All you need in a small package.

Pros: Battery lasts forever. I keep light function on while operating without worries. Squelch and volume function easy to find. Intuitive to use. This radio is loud. Probably no need for a headset adapter in the cockpit with this one. Great receiver.
Cons: Display is small but still readable and does the job. Close proximity to certain indoor lights and electronics may require high squelch adjustment. Not a problem when working at airport though.
Review:
Wanted a handheld to pick up ATIS and potentially departure clearance before start up. Also good to have in case of comm failure. It's compact to carry and keep ground control up while working dispatch on the ramp. Does what it's supposed to and the size is perfect. It will be replacing my much loved IC-A23 . The IC-A16 is a noticeably better receiver. Able to pick up Boston Center as well as all corresponding traffic over a large area from my home.

Great upgrade from our old model

Pros: Lightweight but sturdy; long battery life & with a faster recharge.
Cons:
Review:
Really like the lighter weight and the tension in the volume knob; there were times with our old model (the IC-A6) when inadvertent jostling would turn the volume so low I wouldn't hear it.
