The ICOM IC-A210 Series of VHF 760 COMM transceivers operating in 118-136.975MHz range are offered in non certified and certified models. Featured with OLED displays,"flip-flop" arrow button switches between main and stand-by channels, GPS memory function, a built-in DC-DC converter accepting 12/24VDC power source, a built-in voice activated intercom allowing pilot-copilot communication via the headset and two types of rear-panel adapters included for streamlined plug-in connectivity, ICOM A210 series transceivers are a meaningful choice for radio upgrades and replacecements as they are interchangeable with IC-A200, KY96A/KY97A & SL40 radios. IC-A210E is compatible with 8.33kHz channel spacing in addition to the widely used 25kHz while IC-A210T is additionally TSO/ETSO certified. Key features of ICOM IC-A210 Series of VHF 760 COMM transceivers are briefly described below.
Large, bright OLED display
The IC-A210 VHF COMM transceivers have an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display. The OLED display emits light by itself and the display offers many advantages in brightness, vividness, high contrast, wide viewing angle and response time compared to a conventional display. In addition, the auto dimmer function adjusts the display for optimum brightness — day or night.
GPS memory function
When connected to an external GPS receiver equipped with an airport frequency database, frequency data for nearby airports can be used in the IC-A210.
12V/24V DC power source
The built-in DC-DC converter accepts a 12/24V (11.5–27.5V) DC power source. The IC-A210 is easily installed in most airplanes or vehicles.
Intercom functions
The IC-A210 has a built-in voice activated intercom function allowing the pilot to talk with the copilot via the headset. The IC-A210 has adjustable audio level and squelch control functions.
Easy installation
The IC-A210 neatly fits inside the common mounting brackets used on most airplanes including ICOM’s IC-A200. Two types of rear-panel adapters are included, allowing for streamlined plug-in connectivity.
8.33kHz channel spacing
In addition to the widely used 25kHz channel spacing, IC-A210E is also compatible with 8.33kHz channel spacing.
