VHF AIR BAND TRANSCEIVER
WITH VOR NAVIGATION
The IC-A24E has a completely renewed style with a large LCD and speaker. It offer simple operation by way of a minimum of practical functions.
With it stylish design and reliable performance, the IC-A24E is a fitting successor to the award winning IC-A23.
SELLING POINTS
• Durable, stylish body
• New channel recall function
• Variety of battery packs and case (Compatible with Icom F series battery pack/case)
• Simultaneous operating and charging from external power source
• VOR navigation function
• Dedicated 121.5MHz Emergency key (Programmed with 121.5MHz homing frequency)
• Water resistant, equivalent to IPX4
• 200 alphanumeric memory channels with memory banks
• Side Tone function
• ANL function
Durable stylish body The IC-A24E design has incorporated the size and durability of the IC-A22 and retains the basic user friendly interface users loved about the IC-A23. The Large LCD, large speaker and easy-to-use panel layout makes it a rank above the rest. On the side of the radio, it has a non-slip slit to prevent accidental dropping.
Large alphanumeric LCD For the function display, a 6-character 14-segment alphanumeric LCD is employed to make a variety of information visually recognizable immediately. An automatic LCD backlight is standard for night time operation. Channel recall function New for the IC-A24E, this function automatically memorizes the last 10 used channels. You can easily recall those channels by pushing recall buttons on the front panel. It is very convenient for switching between several channels at a time, such as NAV channels and COM channels, etc.
Icom F series battery packs and case The IC-A24E shares the same battery packs and case with our popular land mobile radios IC-F11, F3G, F30G series. Variety of battery types, Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, Li-Ion are optionally selectable. The BP-208N, battery case is available with 6 AA (LR6) alkaline cells as a backup battery source. Uses N-type reinforced battery packs/case.
Battery pack BP-208N BP-209N BP-210N BP-211N
Type AA (LR6) batteries x 6 Ni-Cd Ni-MH Li-Ion Voltage 7.2V 7.2V 7.2V Capacity 1100 mA/h 1650 mA/h 1800 mA/h Operating time - 8 hours 12 hours 13 hours Simultaneous operation and charging from external power source The IC-A24E has an external DC power jack for operation with the AC adapter, BC-110, the optional cigarette lighter cable with DC-DC converter, CP-20. When battery pack is installed to the radio, it is also simultaneously charged during operation. An external 11.0V DC power source is acceptable.
Dedicated 121.5MHz emergency key A dedicated red emergency key programmed with a 121.5MHz homing frequency is equipped to give you extra confidence in the event of an emergency.
VOR navigation function 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 (or from) a VOR station. You can also input your intended radial to (or from) a VOR station and show the course deviation on the display. In the USA version, the duplex operation allows you to call a COM channel such as a flight service station etc., while receiving a VOR station.
Large 200 memory channel capacity with memory banks A total of 200 memory channels can be named with a 6-character channel name for easy recognition. By grouping these channels into 10 memory banks, quick and easy operation is possible. The optional PC cloning software, CS-A24 allows you quick and easy memory management from your PC.
Water resistant, equivalent to IPX4 The water resistant construction provides reliable operation in wet conditions. Equivalent to IPX4 of the corresponding international standard IEC 60529 (2001).
Side Tone function The side tone function allows you to hear your own voice via a headset. By monitoring your own voice, this function eliminates unnecessary shouting on a noisy runway. Side tone level is adjustable from the transceiver. Optional OPC-499 HEADSET ADAPTER CABLE and external aviation headset are required.
Variety of scanning functions The COM band scan checks all of the busy COM band channels, and the memory scan checks the tagged memory channels. Weather channel scan is also possible.
Other functions:
• NOAA weather channels
• 5W (PEP) output power
• ANL (Auto Noise Limiter) reduces noise components
• Low battery indication and over voltage alert
• BNC type antenna connector
• Keypad backlighting
