ICOM IC-A16E

The ICOM IC-A16E is a compact and exceptionally rugged VHF aviation handheld radio with 8.33 kHz and 25 kHz channel spacing. With 6 W PEP transmitter output, 200 memory channels, ANL noise reduction and an IP67-rated housing, it provides a reliable communication solution for pilots, flight schools, flying clubs and professional airport operations.

This version is the non-Bluetooth model. For users who do not require a wireless headset connection, it provides the essential communication functions of the IC-A16 series in a particularly robust and straightforward configuration.

6 W Transmitter Output

The IC-A16E provides 6 W PEP transmitter output.

This gives the compact handheld radio strong performance for mobile aviation communication applications.

8.33 kHz and 25 kHz Channel Spacing

The IC-A16E supports both 8.33 kHz and 25 kHz channel spacing.

This makes it suitable for current European aviation communication applications.

200 Memory Channels

The IC-A16E provides 200 memory channels.

Frequently used frequencies can be stored and quickly recalled.

This is particularly useful for regularly used airports and radio stations.

ANL Noise Reduction

The integrated Automatic Noise Limiter (ANL) helps reduce pulse-type interference in the received signal.

This can improve radio intelligibility in environments with electrical interference.

Rugged IP67 Construction

The IC-A16E was designed for demanding mobile applications.

Its rugged housing is rated IP67 for protection against dust and water and meets requirements according to MIL-STD-810-G.

This makes it suitable for regular use at airfields and under demanding environmental conditions.

Compact and Lightweight

Weighing only approximately 257 g including the battery, the IC-A16E is easy to carry in a flight bag.

Its compact dimensions of approximately 111.8 × 52.2 × 34.1 mm make it a practical companion in the cockpit and on the airfield.

Illuminated Display

The illuminated display provides good readability under different lighting conditions.

Operation is deliberately focused on the essential aviation radio functions.

Ideal as a Backup Radio

Thanks to its compact dimensions, rugged construction and independent battery power, the IC-A16E is particularly well suited as a backup radio in the cockpit.

It can also be used for mobile ground communication applications in accordance with applicable regulations.
