- Review:
Not sure if this radio has been designed for pilots.
A nagging reminder "you assume total responsibility and risk..." has to be confirmed at each power on.
The list of odd handlings is long.
- Freqs cannot be put in the order you need them, but are listed alphabetically,
- no wrap-around in most lists: when you are at the end of a 50+ list you have to step back to go to the first item
- navigation is strange: when you GOTO a point, pilots would expect a course, but just get a red blob on a compass rose which is dancing when you're on ground,
- GPS reception is slow and easily screened
- VOR settings can only be made after VOR reception,
- Keys are too small compared to competitors and poorly lighted.
A nice radio to play with at your office desk, but of limited use in your cockpit. - Was this review helpful to you? Yes No 21 Other people found this review helpful.
