Hi group
It came to me to look at the 91AD. Is there any difference between the 91AD and
the 92AD? Maybe instead of loading up (and I do mean loading up) maybe I should
look at the 91AD instead. Any difference?

The key functional differences:
IC91AD only has two power settings - low/high, in the low position it
is often not enough to get into the repeater, in the high position the
radio gets HOT (oven mitt sometimes recommended) and has a circuit to
drop power when it gets too hot.
IC92 has four po

91 can do this as well. I own a 91 and use the dual receive facility
to monitor both my FM
In addition, what is often comes to the top of the complaint list for
the 91 here is the analog volume pod which can be moved easily while it
stays in your pocket. It surprises you when you turn it on next time.

I found it funny when I re-read my own post. I meant to say it can be
"turned" easily.

I do not know much about the 91AD but I own a 92AD. So I really can't compare
the two, however I can say that if you weight what you wish to spend against
what you want it to do then you can get the answer. There are downsides to
both. I wanted GPS. I find it funny that the Users guide uses digi
I don't know the reason but I know that the 92AD gets real hot if you talk to
long on Digital. Each level of heat drops the wattage untill it will not
transmit. So you have to make your comments quick and to the point. As for the
reason I don't know that. I lay mine on the cooling pad that I use
what if you where to install some small fans on the box lets say two do you
think that would be enough to cool the radio as well as the little BD-35?

You need to look at your application. If you are intending the radio to
need higher power and be used for extended periods, get a mobile.
If you need something very portable for quick status reports, get a
handheld.
By the time you buy a handheld and an amp, you are at least as expensive

Ben,
No problem, YMMV, I wasn't suggesting the IC-80 at all, only to suggest
that it shares programming software with the ID-880 mobile radio.
Just for the record, the IC-80AD and ID-880 are both "dual band" (they
operate on both 2m and 70cm) but they are not "dual watch" (monitoring

Please note that none of the current D-Star radios is capable of dual
watch two DV-mode frequencies. If one is DV, another comes to FM. Dual
FM is OK.

I own both a 91 and a 92. I bought the 92 first based mostly on the (correct)
information I received when I asked the same question you did. John Hay's post
is right on as far as the differences go (he's probably the one who answered my

The IC80 is not dual band I have one and I can use it on both 2M and
70CM. YOu cannot monitor both bands at the same time, but you can put
frequencies from both in the radio. I really like mine, and with the
