Hand Held Radios (Com + Nav)and GPS...Help?
Hi All!
OK.. we are tricking out our new (to us) 172...
Looking at/comparing the ICOM IC-A23, and the Vertex Standard
VXA-210.
ICOM is more $, but a known quantity/quality.
Completely unfamiliar with Vertex quality/service..
Any experiences you would share with us?
And....
GPS....
The GARMIN 196 seems to be a fav, but we are attracted to the
features/screen size of the Lowrance Airmap 1000.
Short of "holding out" for a Colour 196 we are asking for
advice here as well..
Any owner/user comparisons/recommendations?
Thanks in advance....
Dave
