Multifunctional Digital with DV and FM Dual Mode

 

Worldwide Communication through the D-STAR Network

The ID-52Ε PLUS is a VHF/UHF dual bander with D-STAR and FM dual mode functions. The ID-52Ε 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-52Ε PLUS, you can call a friend in another city, or even internationally through D-STAR repeaters, with digital clear audio. In addition, the ID-52Ε PLUS can send digital voice with data, text messages, GPS location information and pictures.

Share Picture Function - A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

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-52Ε PLUS through Bluetooth® connection. Enjoy sharing pictures together with voice messages.

The Share Picture function requires the optional picture utility software ST-4001A (on Google Play™), ST-4001I (on App Store) or ST-4001W (Download from Icom website) picture utility software. The ST-4001W requires a microSD card or a USB cable to transfer pictures.

 

DR (D-STAR Repeater) Function

 

The expanded DR (D-STAR Repeater) function makes D-STAR and FM repeater communication easier to use. Combined with the GPS function, you can make selection of a local repeater available with a couple of button pushes, based on your location. From this model, once you select the nearest repeater, you can choose other nearby repeaters simply by the dial operation. Additionally, the DR mode supports reflector linking controls.

 

Wireless Connection Via Bluetooth® with an Android™ Device Even When Using Terminal Mode and Access Point Mode

While the previous ID-52Ε required a cable connection, the ID-52Ε PLUS can now connect wirelessly to an Android™ device over Bluetooth® connection in the Terminal mode and Access Point mode. By connecting to an Android device with the RS-MS3A app, D-STAR communication is possible through a cellular phone. You can smoothly start Terminal mode and Access Point mode operation wirelessly even when you are going out. You can also operate these modes by connecting your ID-52Ε PLUS to a PC with the RS-MS3W software by a USB cable connected to the internet. When you are in areas with no D-STAR repeaters, create your own D-STAR Access Point to access the D-STAR network virtually anywhere. This enables another D-STAR radio user to communicate through the D-STAR network over the air.


Advanced Functions and Operations with an Improved User Interface

2.3" Large Color Display

The ID-52Ε PLUS is equipped with a color display. The display size is 2.3 inches, 320 × 280 pixels to achieve excellent viewability. The display background color is selectable from black and white.
