I have had this since I was a student pilot a few years ago. In great shape and ready to go. I think I paid $400 for it but will sell it for $200 plus the actual shipping. If you want it let me know and lets work out a deal.
Fly the airwaves with the latest ICOM airband transceiver! The IC-A23 is nearly half the size of the IC-A22, and another third as small as the IC-A21, yet it is every inch an ICOM, chock full of the useful features you've come to rely on. Its palm size is very convenient for carrying on your belt with the supplied belt clip. The IC-A23 has water resistant construction, equivalent to JIS-4 grade, which allows safe operation in rainy conditions. The IC-A23 has a VOR navigation function which indicates the bearing to or from the VOR station. A Course Deviation Indicator (CDI) shows the deviation between your flying course and the desired course. In CDI mode, the ABSS (Auto Bearing Set System) function allows you to center your flying course in one touch.
