The popular ID-52A D-STAR transceiver just gets more powerful. Terminal mode and Access Point mode, which previously required a cable connection, can now connect to an Android™ device via Bluetooth® technology. In addition, dual operation of Terminal mode and Simplex/Repeater operations is now possible. Moreover, an industry standard USB Type-C™ port for convenient USB Type-C™ charging is newly adopted. Experience all the advantages with the ID-52A PLUS and enjoy stable long-distance communication using the internet connected D-STAR repeater network.
The ID-52A PLUS is a VHF/UHF dual bander with D-STAR and FM dual mode functions. The ID-52A PLUS supports conventional FM communications as well as D-STAR simplex, repeater, regional, and worldwide calls over the D-STAR Internet gateway. With the ID-52A PLUS, you can call a friend in another city, or even internationally through D-STAR repeaters, with digital clear audio. In addition, the ID-52A PLUS can send digital voice with data, text messages, GPS location information and pictures.
You can share pictures with other users and see received pictures on the color display (DV mode). Pictures taken on a smart device can be wirelessly transferred to the ID-52A PLUS through Bluetooth® connection. Enjoy sharing pictures together with voice messages.Â
