Europa-List: Handheld comm radio

[Sidsel & Svein Johnsen <sidsel.svein@oslo.online.no>]

Does anyone have experience (good or bad) with a handheld VHF comm radio
used in the aircraft?  I am interested in this option as a second radio on
board, both in case the installed radio should fail and -primarily - as a
means of listening to VFR traffic close to non-towered airports and
air-to-air communication (fairly close range) while still listening to the
traffic controllers on radio no. 1.


Info on radio, connection to external antenna if any, connection to headset,
etc., appreciated.


Regards

Svein
