Reviews

Recently purchased this radio. Comes with a Basic Manual but recommend downloading the Full Manual from ICOM. Also the radios VOX was set to transmit automatically over the air even if I was just talking with a passenger using the intercom. Heard hot mike several times. The Full Manual shows the steps on setting VOX to off.

Bought the ICOM A25C for my husband. He is very pleased, and the radio is very clear. Thank you to Spruce aircraft for their helpful advice.

A great radio that is easy to use. I was pleasantly surprised to find the charger is multi-voltage as I will be using the radio in 110V and 240V countries. It was also a surprise to find a separate battery pack for AA batteries included.
