Wow, the radio has been completely remade. Very nice features.
Amazing video short and to the point
Thanks for this video!
You list on the feature screen near the end of the video that it has Localizer feature. I can't find anywhere to confirm it has Localizer CDI or Glide Slope indication. Can you confirm if this feature has been added or if it was an error on the slide?
I'm dumbfounded that you didn't talk about the audio quality transmit or receive.
Especially using it over bluetooth, for a wireless experience. Too many cables.
@@PatPrice123 I have the radio and my main use is actually getting ATIS at home or in the car before I even get to the plane. So for me, reception quality / sensitivity is key. The GPS / FPL function is basically garbage. However the radio is excellent. Way better than Yaesu or SP-400.
Is that Bernie from (Weekend at Bernies) pilot in command?
Can I program frequencies through the app or computer? Or do I have to hand input them one at a time?
Looks similar to the ID-51A HAM Radio, at least building quality and some design features.
Seems that Icom has abandoned the mobile apps. They have not been updated since 2017.
Hello buddy,
I have a question, I live in the second floor from an apartment,I am wondering if ICOM 25N can get the signals ? From here ! I tried to listen to frequencies from home but didn’t work at all ! Can’t hear anything and I am not sure where the problem is ! I just got this thing !
can you plug that headset in there without problems? how does it perform?
I want a handheld aviation radio that I can grab when I'm hanging upside down in a tree with two broken legs and a concussion in a blizzard and press a button and can get rescued. What is the best radio for that, and I'm not joking. Many thanks.
YAESU VERTEX FTA 550 has a big, red button you press and takes you to 121.5 If I was only going to get one thing for your situation it would be a PLB like ACR RESQLINK 406. It's GPS based and tells not only where you are but who you are.
Many thanks!
I second the ACR PLB recommendation. ResQLink or ResQlink+ (which floats)
The guy flying is like a statue..
Anyways, anyone know if the com only version has bluetooth?
It does not
FAAARRRKKK why the loud music?
