Hi TO

Take a look at the Vertex VXA-300 Pilot 3:

http://www.hamradio.co.uk/acatalog/A...nsceivers.html

I bought one of these - not CAA approved but comes with the headset adaptor and works fine with my headset.

Also has VOR capability and many other features.

Good piece of kit - spec and performance at least equals the Icom range.

I used mine during the summer when our on-board radio went down, and got a good 20 miles range even using the built in rubber duck.

Hope this helps.

regards

OM
