The TSO-approved version will work for all certified part 23 aircraft. This air-to-ground transceiver can work on both 8.33 kHz and 25 kHz channel spacing frequencies. It features the brightest OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) display on the market, offering many advantages in brightness, vividness, high contrast, wide viewing angle, and response time compared to a conventional display. The A220 also features a built-in two station intercom, 12 or 24-volt-compatible, and automatic squelch.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh Visibility, Simple Operation\u003cbr\u003e\u003csmall\u003eThe OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) emits light from itself, so a display backlight is not required. It provides higher contrast, wider viewing angle of almost 180 degrees and faster response time than a conventional LCD. The IC-A220’s display has a wide active area, operating frequencies’ characters can be maximized in the display, while operating status can be shown on both top and bottom of the display.\u003c\/small\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge Switch Buttons\u003cbr\u003e\u003csmall\u003eThe IC-A220 has large switch buttons on the front panel. The most frequently used FLIP-FLOP (Frequency exchange) switch button is designed large enough to be pushed with ease. All switch buttons and knobs are illuminated with pure-white backlighting which are the same color as the OLED display.\u003c\/small\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTSO\/ETSO Certification\u003cbr\u003e\u003csmall\u003eThe IC-A220 TSO version can be used as a primary VHF radio in general aviation (part 23) aircraft*. The IC-A220 TSO version is also accepted as an ETSO radio under the TSO\/ETSO reciprocal acceptance policy. * For more details, please see the Environmental Qualification Form on www.icomamerica.com\u003c\/small\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuto Squelch Function\u003cbr\u003e\u003csmall\u003eThe squelch sensitivity is automatically adjusted in accordance with the noise level to eliminate annoying background noise and unwanted signals.\u003c\/small\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick Squelch Adjustment\u003cbr\u003e\u003csmall\u003eThe auto and manual squelch including squelch level can be quickly accessed with the Volume knob.
