ARLA/CLUSTER: ICOM ID-51 VHF/UHF + D-STAR

[Carlos Fonseca]

Icom Inc. have shown a prototype of a new dual band D-STAR handheld radio
at the Tokyo Ham Fair 2012 which is being held between August 25th and 26th
2012 in Tokyo.
The ID-51A/E series D-STAR handheld radio is an evolution of Icom’s
ID-31A/E UHF D-STAR Handheld and will be capable of both VV / UU 144MHz +
430MHz dual band operation. The ID-51A/E will also include the much praised
menu-driven user interface of the ID-31A/E series with a much bigger LCD
screen. The ID-51A/E will also feature integrated GPS & D-STAR as well as
IPx7 waterproofing, SD-Card slot and slim body found on the ID-31A/E.
*Other planned features include*
• VV / UU capable 144MHz and 430MHz dual band (Only one DV signal can be
received, similar to the manner as the IC-2820H/E2820 series).
• Limited wideband receive for AM/FM broadcast (no bar antenna), 118-137MHz
(AM air band), 137- 174MHz and 380-479MHz
• Larger full dot matrix LCD
• Broadcast mode LCD indication (rather than VFO only, station name can be
shown)
• Enhanced logging function. The ID-51A/E records frequencies, time,
position and other operation related information on the SD Card.
• Improved automatic response function. The radio may be programmed to have
an automated response self call sign for unique reply in addition to
regular call sign
• Voice recorder function (not the communication logging function but a
simple digital voice recorder function which records your voice).
• One touch voice play back function for contest transmissions
• Frequency and mode of operation speech and specific frequency beep
function helps blind hams for easier operation.
• Enhanced RX call sign memory records up to 50 past received call signs,
which can be exported to micro SD card.
• Increased memory channel for repeater list (750)/ GPS memory (200).
• Approx 10mm taller and 1mm thicker than the ID-31A/E (weight TBA) • 5
Watts output (tX)
