ICOM ID-52
Icom has announced details of the ID-52E D-STAR Digital Handheld Transceiver. The ID-52E VHF/UHF dual-band digital transceiver is the latest in a long line of D-STAR handportables from Icom and succeeds the popular ID-51EPLUS2. Two versions will be available globally, the ID-52A for the USA and ID-52E for Europe.
The radio features a large transflective colour display that makes it easy to see outdoors, even in bright sunlight. The size of the display has also been increased to 2.3 inches from 1.7 inches which was adopted on the ID-51E.
The ID-52E supports Bluetooth communication as standard. You can wirelessly connect to Android devices with the ST-4001A/ST-4001I Picture Utility Software when the RS-MS1A Remote Control Software installed. The optional VS-3 Bluetooth headset is also available, for hands-free operation.
ID-52E Features:
- Simultaneous reception in V/V, U/U, V/U as well as DV/DV.
- Airband reception is expanded from VHF to UHF (225 to 374.995 MHz).
- Can be charged via a micro USB connector.
- Audio output has been increased from 400 mW to 750 mW.
- The latest D-STAR functions allow you to send, receive and view saved photos on an installed microSD card using only the ID-52E.
- Accessories for the ID-51E, including battery packs and microphones, can be used.
