I have used a Sporty's handheld for several years, and it's always worked
fine.
I like it because it is simple to use, and it just works.

I'm a student pilot, and it's about time for me to get a radio. For
general
soaring purposes, what's a decent handheld? I really know nothing about
them. Is the Sporty's SP-200 a good choice?

Thanks in advance.
