Larger radio, larger color display, and louder audio. The ID-52A is much more than a replacement to the ID-51A, it’s a new way of communicating! An industry first, a handheld with a full color waterfall display and the ability to send photos over the D-STAR network. The ID-52A continues to support D-STAR functions with DR mode for easy access to local repeaters based on the internal GPS information, as well as Terminal and Access Point modes. Additionally, the radio only weighs a mere 10.4oz (295g) and has an 80% increase in overall volume to hear in loud conditions.
