Selected User Reviews For BaoFeng UV-5R 8W Ham Radio Walkie Talkie Dual Band 2-Way Radio with an Extra 3800mAh Battery Handheld Walkie Talkies with Baofeng Hand Mic and Programming Cable
The coordination of airsoft tournaments is much better, and nobody has any problem connecting to the This was just used with a few others during the hunting season, and we all had clear discussions across 9 miles of ravines and hilltops, and we all got along fantastically! I saw it from inside a solid wood blind that was sealed. It's quality, now that's what I call it! A simple and easy to use tool. It was only a disappointment that I accidentally zeroed one of the radios and that the computer software for reinstalling frequencies was more difficult to use than expected. It is a great value for the price.
I am very pleased with this purchase. After much searching I decided to go with this UV5R. It was a good choice. This Baofeng radio seems to have pretty good quality, I wonder if they have better customer service and control over the entire product line? If so, just pick this one, if you're thinking about which Baofeng to get.
A good design, not too heavy, and easy to use makes this radio a great choice. I've lined one before and bought another one. My friend needs one now as a gift. It's price is very reasonable. I should buy one as soon as possible. It was only occasionally difficult to get signals from the repeater because I live in a city (it might be due to the fact that it is more than five miles away from me). The second piece of equipment I purchased was the BaoFeng UV 5R, but with 8W of As soon as I felt the improvement, I felt better. It was great that the extra 3 watts of power made such a difference, and I no longer had difficulty reaching the receiver! Since I was getting two radios, I wanted to program them in the same way so they could broadcast on the same The move saved me around $30, and I was glad I did it. Besides the special firmware mentioned in the description, I also requested the seller to send me the manual and followed all instructions, and I did both of my bao hams in about 30 minutes. The two Baofeng radios that I own have been very satisfactory to me (I'm currently using an It really is true that what you pay for is what you get.
Having received the walkie talkie, I find it to be the perfect size for me, and the lightweight design is great for carrying, I prefer it over the large ham radio. Neither of you is connected to the same channel. Basically, this is the best outdoor device you can get.
That is one of the greatest radio shows I've ever heard. This is a simple and effective solution. The program cable works well and is in good condition. It starts off well with antennas, and with the extra battery it is a real deal. It was much easier to receive signal on this Handheld than on the UV-L A week after I finished this one, I picked up another RA. The radio I bought after receiving my amateur radio license is the first I have ever bought, so I can't compare it to any other radios. I found it quite easy to program using a programming cable (sold separately) and CHIRP as a first-time radio user. As far as the battery is concerned, I haven't charged it more than twice since I got it. I've listened to it mostly for days, talking here and there when something piques my interest, and have only had to recharge it twice. There are three different power settings, which I suppose is useful. It's not hard for me to hit a repeater about six miles from my house on medium, but it is said that when I raise it to high the sound quality is so The lamp claims to be able to produce 8 watts on high. I do not have the equipment to verify that claim, but I know from watching YouTube videos that the lamp actually produces somewhere between 7 and 8 watts. A 5 watt power source.
A friend who I was hiking with recommended Baofeng. My experience with this product has been fantastic. It's exactly what I was looking for! I like how the audio comes in cross load and is clear, and how far away it covers. I think this is really an excellent deal for its price. My experience with it thus far has been very positive. There is no way I could live without it, and I just love all the bells and whistles it comes with. My only complaint with the radio is that the instructions aren't as clear as they should be. However, I found a lot of good tutorials on YouTube that will help me figure out how to use the radio. The Baofeng radios would be a great gift for anyone who enjoys group outdoor activities such as hiking, skiing, and wants to stay in touch with those around them.
Quite a few Baofeng clones are available on Amazon and there have been mixed results with the clones in the ham community. The one you have here is fine with me. I measured the bigger whip antenna as being the same size as my Nagoya antenna and it works just as well as my Nagoya antenna. If you have an amateur radio license from the FCC, this is a great kit. The person I spoke with on a repeater reported that he could clearly hear my voice.
Several weeks ago I bought a radio. Despite its delay, it was working well and arrived in good time. I was able to use it on the trail within miles with no problem. It appears that the battery included is quite While backpacking or carrying heavy loads, the hand microphone with a cord up to 49 inches can be very useful. There are many good things about this radio, including its toughness, light weight, and multifunctionality. This product has been very satisfying to me.
