SP-200 NAV/COM Transceiver
NOTE: Sporty's SP-200 is no longer available. Our new SP-400 Hand-held NAV/COM is available here.
Sporty’s experience operating a fleet of 18 airplanes enabled our pilots to engineer the SP-200 hand-held NAV/COM with unique features and pilot-friendly design. It is still the only hand-held radio to put communication, VOR navigation and localizer display in the palm of your hand. Now includes a handy “Last Frequency” button and 8.33 KHz frequency spacing (already in effect in Europe). Includes five year warranty, flexible antenna, removable wrist strap, alkaline battery case and instruction manual. Our SP-200 makes a terrific backup radio. Here’s why:

Date - 9-20-2009 Rating - Commercial Overall  Durability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended No |  Appears to be as advertised, but have not owned the device at this time long enought to know for sure how it will work over time. This is a replacement for another Sporty's Transceiver that suddenly stopped working for no reason. Thus, as realiability is one of te most important factors, do not really know at this point whether the device is realiable or not. ConsThe previous transceiver from Sporty's that I purchased came in a nice carrying case with accessories. This item had not such case, and not accessories with the unit. Thus, it is not as good a value. In addition, it is somewhat larger than I would like, feels a little cheap and would be better with a rubberized cover. Range of reception does not seem as good as the previous transceiver I onwed which was also a Sporty's product. General CommentsIt is reaslly toos early to comment on whether this device will meet my expecctations or not. I would suggest a followup in 4 to 5 months. It is too early at this point to recommend the device to another customer. |

Date - 8-12-2009 Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | this radio has saved me more than once from relying on "light gun signals" when my avionics went dead, get the belt clip and the headphone adapter so you can hang this from the door handle or map pouch for easy reach Conscould use a low battery warning indicator (it uses 8aa) or a rechargeable pack,,i buy new batteries every month just as a precaution General Commentsthe last frequency button broke and a call to sportys gave me the return address for repairs,it was returned in 3 days fixed also they performed a frequency adjustment and vor check that i didn't ask for i was impressed it worked better than out of the box |

| Nice clean unit. AA batteries are a plus as I carry spares for all of my other electronics anyway. ConsDid not come with any connectivity devices - by the time I add on the price of headphone jacks + shipping it is no better value than the ICOMM product. Earphone jack does not connect to any normal telephone or ipod earphone. General CommentsExpected to have attachments included, not to have to make seperate purchases. Used it to get AWOS and was loud enough to hear with my headsets on, although not connected to my system. |
Date - 7-22-2009 Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | works very well in all modes. a great safety item. Consnone General Comments( No General Comments Listed From Reviewer ) |
| Cost better than competitors ConsDo not expect to use this radio in an airplane with the headset adaptor(which they do not include and rip you off for another $70 bucks). Volume inadequate to hear with engine noise. Also, tried to use it for a VOR approach and it jumped all over the place. I can't imagine using this for a real approach with any accuracy at all. I have not tried it on a localizer yet. Vor probably OKAY for VOR test and calculating position by crossing radials; but I have 2 GPS's in the plane. I got this for electrical failure and right now, I don't know if it could save my bacon in IMC. General CommentsBTW, don't pay for headset adaptor, go to Radioshack and jerry rig your own. |
Date - 6-23-2009 Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Easy to use. Great receive sensitivity (esp. VOR/localized mode). Mulitple power sources. ConsPrice of General Comments Great radio. As a Ham, I know about hand-held radios, and this one has the competition (Icoms and Vertex-Standards) beat hands down! |

Date - 4-24-2009 Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Works as advertised. Great for a backup radio and you could even navigate with it in a pinch. ConsYou cannot plug your headset into it without buying an additional adapter. I would almost rather select a frequency using a dial like my in dash radios...the button entry method is probably faster, but it's a little confusing at first...you might have trouble figuring out how to use the device without the instructions which may not be available (or you may be too stressed to read) in an emergency.

Date - 4-8-2009 Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Have owned for about two months. Nice radio. Easy to use. Works well. Cant really comment on durability yet but they claim it to be so. My instructor tested the VOR during one of my flights and it was working fine. Very pleased with it. None that I can think of.
