Easy to use while flying
Simple one-handed operation is the most essential feature of the IC-A24/A6.
The well labeled, large keypad provided user friendly operation. The
large display shows both letters and numbers and is easy to see, making
for fast frequency recognition. The dislay is backlit, and so is the
keypad. The light stays on until you turn it off - a very handy feature
for flying at night.
"Flip-flop" channel recall
The IC-24/A6 stores the last 10 channels used. You can easily recall
those channels by pushing the "flip-flop" recall buttons
on the front pannel. It is convenient for switching between several
channels, such as NAV and COM channel.
VOR navigation*
The IC-A24 has VOR navigation functions. The DVOR mode shows the radial
to or from a VOR station and the CDI mode shows the course deviation
to/from a VOR station. You can also input your intended radial to/from
the VOR station and show the course deviation on the display. In the
USA version, the duplex operation aloows you to call a COM channel,
while you are using VOR navigation. (* IC-A24 only)
External DC power jack
An external DC power jack allows for operation with the wall charger,
BC-110 or the cigarette lighter cable, CP-20. When the battery pack
is installedm simultaneous charging during operation is also possible.
In addition, an optional battery case, BP-208N, is available.
Water resistant construction
The water resistant construction provides reliable operation in wet conditions.
*Equivalent to IPX4 of the corresponding international standard IEC 60529
(2001).
