ICOM ID-52A VHF/UHF Multi-Function D-Star Handheld Transceivers
ICOM ID-52A VHF/UHF Multi-Function D-Star Hand-Held Transceivers allow you to enjoy portable operations like you've never seen before. The large 2.3 in. color display offers more information, an improved interface, and an industry-first color waterfall band scope for a VHF/UHF portable. The integrated speaker provides a booming 750 mW of output so you never miss a contact—and the integrated Bluetooth allows for connectivity with a wide variety of external audio devices. * Key Features: - Integrated GPS - Micro USB port for PC connectivity and battery charging - Micro SD card slot - DR mode for D-STAR operations - Dualwatch with new DV/DV mode - IPX7 submersible rating - Transflective screen layer for improved visibility in direct light - VHF/UHF Airband and FM broadcast receive - Improved heat dissipation efficiency - QSO log in CSV data format - Voice recorder function 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 hand-held 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 weighs a mere 10.4 oz. (295g) and has an 80 percent 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 allow for monitoring of Military Air Bands 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. The optional VS-3 Bluetooth® headset with the large PTT button allows for hands-free operation. Additionally, users can program 3 buttons to improve operability and mobility. Download the RS-MS1A Remote Control Software on Google Play to change operating frequencies, send texts, and more! Integrated GPS/GLONASS Receiver - With a GPS lock, use the D-PRS mode to send location data, as well as show received station location, distance, and direction. The ID-52A also displays current Grid Square information. This GPS position data can be used for the Position Auto Reply, Near Repeater Search and GPS log functions. Icom ID-52A Specifications (partial, subject to change): * Output Power: 5W / 2.5W / 1.0W / 0.5W / 0.1W * Wideband Receiver Frequencies: 88 – 174 MHz, 225 – 479 MHz * TX Frequencies: 144-148, 440-450 MHz * Channels: 1000 * Bluetooth: Built-in * GPS: Built-in * Waterproof Rating: IPX7

WiMo PicoAPRS-Lite APRS Transceiver Module
PicoAPRS-Lite APRS Transceiver Module - the little brother of the popular PicoAPRS. This is a tiny APRS tracker weighing just 7.2 grams*! Even though the PicoAPRS-Lite was developed with balloon flights with APRS payload (Pico balloons and stratosphere balloons) in mind, it can naturally also be used for many more APRS purposes. Thanks to its small measurements of just 27.8 x 66.9 x 6.3mm this tiny tracker can, for example, be installed nearly invisibly in cars. This allows for APRS usage without annoying wiring in the car or too short antenna cables. You can even carry the tracker around in your pocket! An SMA antenna jack is offered separately since its weight of about 2 grams is an unnecessary extra load for the light Pico balloons. This is also the reason why the tracker is being delivered without a case. Special functions of the PicoAPRS-Lite: - Automatic or manual frequency tuning on request. E.g. automatic for worldwide balloon flights. - In areas without APRS coverage and with automatic frequency tuning the ISS APRS frequency is used to be heard even in these situations. - Temperature and air pressure sensor. The values will be sent as an APRS comment in every position. - As an energy source a small solar cell with buffer capacitor can be used, as well as single-use or rechargeable batteries. - Voltage range ca. 3.2 - 5V. - When using a solar cell the PicoARPS-Lite will stay in battery-saving mode use only about 0.1mA until the buffer capacitor has stored enough charge, then sends a beacon and will go back into battery-saving mode to recharge for another beacon if needed. - Even with just one solar cell which supplies the buffer capacitor with just a tiny amount of current it can operate forever in sunshine! Ideal for a world trip with a balloon. - Even when using batteries the energy-saving mode will be used between beacon transmissions to extend the battery's lifetime. - Micro USB port for settings configuration with a terminal software. - Integrated GPS module with balloon mode up to 80km height, ideal for stratosphere balloons. - Transmission power configurable between 0.5 and 1W. - 7-pole lowpass filter to eliminate unwanted spurious emission. Status LED - Firmware updates via USB possible. Future wishes of users and product improvements can be uploaded later. Beware that this device has no voltage regulation! When operating with a solar panel and buffer capacitor the service voltage will usually drop to zero at night. With sunrise the device will be operational soon again. It's important that the tracker can be used with as little power as possible. A voltage regulator would cause a voltage drop which would be inconvenient during sunrise/sundown. To limit the maximum operating voltage a beacon will automatically be transmitted when reaching about 5V in balloon solar mode to use up stored energy. Doing so the maximum operating voltage won't be exceeded even when the idle solar cell provides too much voltage. *1) Weight without antenna jack, case or any energy source. Suggest accessories to be obtained from other sources: - SMA jack for circuit board mounting, upright, with long thread, for single hole fixing. If the device should be in a case and used with a regular antenna. - Lithium polymer battery 3.6V/800mA, as well as compatible connector cable for an external energy source. Beware, the PicoAPRS-Lite has no voltage regulator for batteries! Never charge batteries via USB! - Small USB charger for 4 LiPo batteries max.
