Date - 11-1-2010 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Recommended Yes |  Very handy tool. ConsThe manual comes in handy, it's pretty difficult to look at and figure out, unlike most new electronic devices. General CommentsOverall would recommend, great tool for backup. I'm a student pilot and just didn't end up needed it as much for plane spotting or emergencies so I would rather use the money towards flight fees. |
Date - 10-28-2010 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | SMALL, LONG BATTERIE LIFE Cons( No Cons Listed From Reviewer ) General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 10-28-2010 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Good loud speaker. Large orange backlit display. Small case size fits in shirt pocket. Comes with headset and antenn adapters. Tests to specs! ConsProgramming takes a little time. All the channels preprogrammed in the book memory are of little value to me. When you finally find the one you want, it's too late. General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 9-17-2010 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Most needed accessories come with transciever. ConsNone General Comments Had a problem with headset jack or adapter cable. Returned it to Sporty. Sporty replaced the radio and before shipping replacement to me, confirmed that the headset function worked fine. Very satified with Sporty's. |
| very inexpensive. well built. Cons can't figure out how to program stored numbers. I would recommend this to someone just to use as a devise to listen to radio calls for school work. |

Date - 6-17-2010 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | ( No Pros Listed From Reviewer ) Cons( No Cons Listed From Reviewer ) General CommentsSeems like a durable unit, when shipped the screen has some mild imperfections on the left side (does not affect function). This unit has way more than the average private pilot will ever need, but it is affordable. This is my first aviation radio and have it as a back up only. It is definitely not intuitive, I have a lot of electronics use back ground and this is going to take some time with the manual to get me used to its functionality. |
Date - 5-19-2010 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Seems to have good range and battery. I left the radio on for 48 hours and still had a charge. ConsBattery must be discharged before charging to prevent a memory. Needs to update to Nickel Metal Hydrate. General CommentsGood radio for the money. |

Date - 5-5-2010 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No | Compact, rugged, waterproof. ConsReception was much poorer than expected. I have to be within a couple of miles of the airport to receive AWOS and aircraft traffic calls. I expected much better range than this. General CommentsHave to return the radio. Range is too poor for my purposes. It may be better in the air but I bought it primarily for ground use. |
Date - 4-8-2010 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | This radio is great for doing pretty much anything. I mainly use it to just listen to other planes and so forth. It is pretty powerful I live in Northwest Alabama and can pick up Memphis Center clear as day. It is small and can easily fit places which is another plus. ConsFiguring out just how to program things into it can be somewhat of a challenge but for me if I really needed to get to a frequency fast I would just punch the numbers in, it isn't that hard. General CommentsOverall I love this radio, I think it's a good buy for the money and it works great. I haven't had to use it for real in a plane but I feel more comfortable knowing that it's there in case I need it. |
| Good reception, Good Volume, Durable, Great Battery Life, And Interesting Features ConsHard To Use At First, Adding Contacts/Favorites Is Complicated General CommentsGreat Deal For The Price |

| Compact A little tough to program. I bought the adapter cables, but they don't fit any of my laptops! Buy a DB9M to USB adapter cable too! General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
Date - 1-13-2010 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | This radio is great and when it picks up a pilot it is clear. I love it and im glad i got this. ConsThe only way to pick up most transmissions is to press a button, when you press it then it gets a lot of static, not sure if its just me but that is what happens and its very annoying having it like that and not being able to just let it be quiet till a transmission comes. General Commentsi gave it a 4/5 star in reliability because it does not pick up all transmissions till you press the button. |
