Is there any hand-held better than the icom 16 bluetooth for around the
airport ops? NAV feature not required. Thanks.


I've recently bought a Yaesu FTA-250 for general traffic awareness and
ground comms. I like it - its small, light, easy to use, comes with
charger and belt clip charger. It is switchable between 25kHz and 8.33kHz
channel spacing. Good price too.
