For the purposes of a VFR flight plan or flight following, nobody cares
if it's fixed/portable or approved/unapproved.

So am I allowed to say /G when flying VFR when using the AM1000? I know
the reason for telling them is so they know you can accept direct routing.
For this scenario the AM1000 would work just fine, but in the AIM it says
something about "En Route and Terminal Capabilities" next to the /G
description.
