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.

Receive Modes
Dualwatch allows for the monitoring of two frequencies or bands
simultaneously. VHF/VHF, UHF/UHF and VHF/UHF monitoring are all
supported along with the new ability to decode two DV signals simultaneously.
Quickly call from either the main or sub bands on the fly.
Enhanced UHF capabilities allows for monitoring of Military Airbands from 225 to 374.995 MHz and the wideband
receiver allows for listening to nearby broadcast FM stations.
Bluetooth® Enabled Features
The ID-52A incorporates common Bluetooth®
profiles for audio and data controls, which provide new mobility
in the palm of your hand. Icom leads the way by pairing either
Icom or third-party headsets for voice communications.
