Easy to Use, Rugged and Compact with Icom's “V Speed” Audio!
700mW* loud audio
Because air band radios are usually operated in high-noise environments, it is
essential for the radio to provide loud and clear audio. The IC-A14/S series employs
a BTL amplifier that doubles the audio output, offering loud and clear audio that’ll
cut through cabin or tarmac noise.
* Internal speaker only
Full keypad type or Simple keypad type
The IC-A14 full keypad type allows you to input the channel or frequency directly
and has an exclusive button for the 121.5MHz emergency channel. The IC-A14 receives
NAV and WX channels. The IC-A14S simple keypad type provides simpler operation
with a minimum of buttons that is suitable for ground crews.
Compact, light weight and rugged body
The IC-A14/S series is compact (only 120mm tall) and light weight (approx. 350g
including antenna and BP-232N). The water resistant construction, equivalent
to IPX4, provides reliable operation in wet conditions.
Large capacity Lithium-Ion battery pack
With the 2000mAh large capacity Lithium-Ion battery pack, BP-232N, the IC-A14/S
series provides stable output power and 18 hours long (approx.) operating time*.
The BP-261, battery case takes 6 AA (LR6) alkaline cells for convenient battery
backup.
* Typical operation, Tx:Rx: Stand-by=5:5:90.
200 channels with memory banks
A total of 200* memory channels can be named with an 8-character channel name
for easy recognition. For fast and simple operation, these channels can be grouped
into 10 memory banks*.
