What does it mean by comm only? i would still be able to talk 2-way?

It means that receiving radio-navigation channels (108-117.95 MHz;"VOR") is not included. Yes, you will be able to talk and receive on other channels(118~133 MHz).

Does the headset adapter allow you to plug directly into the Bose A20 and uses the mic activator on the airplane yoke?

The BOSE A20 will connect to the radio via the supplied headset adapter. Ensure that you set the mic to external on the radio, otherwise the headset microphone will not work to the radio. You will need an inline, remote PTT switch, connected via the headset adapter, and mount it on the yoke

I see Software for programing as a download but no programing cable? Is it avaiable?

The reprogramming cable does not come with the radio. You can buy one for about $25 if you need it. (I just did a Web search for “Yaesu 250 programming cable”.) 99% of all the features are accessible via the Setup menu on the radio. This is a great basic VHF backup radio for the price.

Is there an adapter pack to use aa batteries such as with the earlier fta-230?

No. This is a compact radio and comes with a rechargeable Li-ion battery pack and charge cradle. No option for using AA cells.
