Reviewer - k5xs Location - Elkins, AR Date - 2-8-2012 Pilot Rating - Student Overall Durability Reliability Value Usability  Expected Recommended Yes | Built like a tank. Very rugged feel to it. SMA antenna connector isn't my favorite (wish it had a BNC connector). Great insurance at a cheap price. |
Reviewer - Chris E Date - 12-6-2011 Pilot Rating - Commercial OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Small and sturdy. Feels well built. Easy to program. Headset adapter, second battery (AA) adapter, and 12V adapter for the charger were included. Other radios you had to buy the accessories separately.

Location - Cross Lanes, WV Date - 11-27-2011 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes |  Good investment Good price for features. Battery stays charged for many months. Very wonderful back up as many rental planes have less than great radios. Have used it once during a actual radio failure and it worked great. Also very nice to listen in to whats going on around the airport and to listen to AWOS or ATIS with out having the aircrafts master on. ConsSome features are a little hard to remember how to use so keep the book available. General CommentsGood investment in your safety in the event of a radio failure. Has the adapter for headset use with it. |

Reviewer - Raymond L. Fine Location - West Plains, MO Date - 8-24-2011 Pilot Rating - Commercial OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | VXA-Pilot III Transceiver Good transmission and reception, easy to use, small. Really a great portable radio for the low price. ConsNone General CommentsHave had other portables of higher price, this one beats them. |
Reviewer - ntilley905 Location - Burlington, NC Date - 8-14-2011 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Works Great! Sturdy, loud and clear audio, strong transmissions (FBO could hear me from 10 miles out), NAV functions work as expected, great backup and nice to have around on the ground, battery life ConsBelt clip was a little confusing to figure out at first, but is handy once you understand it General CommentsI would recommend this transciever for any pilot looking for something to carry around the ramp to hear comms before start up, and to have as a backup inside the plane. |
Location - Miami, FL Date - 8-11-2011 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Good reception and sound quality. Solid construction. ConsNeed to thoroughly review manual and practice with the unit for some time in order to take advantage of all of the features. Ni-MH batteries tend to self-discharge a little more quickly. General CommentsOverall great product. |

Date - 11-10-2010 Pilot Rating - Private OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Cost effective radio for backup and just monitoring AWOS, ATIS, and Unicom for your effective airport. Very well built and durable. ConsSome say that programming is hard, I found it very easy other than it not a quick process, but worth the effort. General CommentsI would recommend this product to all. |
Date - 10-29-2010 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | Many Features. Hefty handheld that feels like it could take a beating. Good clarity. Great reception. Good battery run time. Great size, fits easily in hand but not too small. Comes with headset adapter. Cons While the keypad and screen is backlit, the 2nd function labels on the key pad are not. I purchased his radio as backup/emergency and it fits the bill. |
Date - 10-18-2010 Pilot Rating - Student OverallDurability Reliability Value Usability Expected Recommended Yes | The memory scan feature is excellent for listening to several frequencies in your area from the ground. ConsA longer antenna would probably pick-up further when on the ground. General CommentsShould be very useful in case of comm or nav equipment failure or for cross checking operability. |
