Hi Michael,
Both Icom and Vertex Standard are excellent radios. Save your money
and get the Comm only version. You will probably never use the Nav
feature.

The VXA-220 is the Comm version from Vertex. I sell it for $199. The
220V charger sells for $29.

The Icom A6 is selling for $248. The 220V charger is $40.

Both are in stock.
Shipping to Australia will cost $45 via US Postal Express Mail Intl.
Let me know if you are interested in placing an order.
Thanks
