Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Icom IC-A220 and do I need more than one radio?
The IC-A220 is a panel mount aviation VHF radio built for the communication needs of modern pilots in general aviation aircraft. It works as a standalone communication radio, so many light aircraft use a single unit for air to ground voice contact. Larger or more complex panels may add a second radio for redundancy, depending on how you fly.
How does the OLED display improve readability in the cockpit?
The IC-A220 uses a bright OLED display with a wide 170 degree viewing angle and automatic dimming that adapts to changing cockpit lighting. It stays easy to read even in direct sunlight, which helps reduce confusion during flight. This clear screen supports comfortable use from bright daytime flying to lower light situations in the cockpit.
How fast can I reach the 121.5 MHz emergency frequency?
The IC-A220 provides one-touch access to the 121.5 MHz emergency frequency, so you can reach it instantly during a distress situation without scrolling through other channels. A flip-flop arrow button also lets you switch quickly between your active and standby frequencies, helping you manage communications smoothly during critical phases of flight when fast changes matter most.
Does the IC-A220 have a built-in intercom?
Yes. The IC-A220 includes a built-in hands-free intercom feature that enhances cockpit communication. Because the intercom is integrated into the radio itself, a basic crew can talk without adding a separate unit, which helps simplify the panel in smaller aircraft.
What comes in the box, and is the IC-A220 easy to install?
This IC-A220 ships with the transceiver, a panel mounting tray, and an install kit. It is designed to install efficiently even in tight panel spaces, which helps reduce installation complexity and aircraft downtime. The intuitive controls are straightforward enough that pilots and flight students can learn them without extensive instruction, making it a practical panel upgrade.
Ordered the Icom A220 to replace the same unit that quit in my 1960 Cessna 150 as it would be able to utilize the same tray. Plan to send out the unit that failed to find out why it quit and to fix it if that can be done. I have used these transceivers before and for the most part they are reliable. I like the display as they are bright and easy to read, especially with the radios' position in the bottom left of the vintage 150's instrument panel. We'll see just how reliable it is. So far, it works fine.
