Baofeng uv-5r - RadioReference.com Forums

A Baofeng will do the same job as a really high quality, very expensive radio of the same power. If we are honest, the radios are complicated, but functional, not the easiest thing in the world to program, and have many layers of menus and too fiddly for many. They're likely to break if you drop them on concrete, but what do you want for the money?

Baofeng - VFO & Channel Mode | RadioReference.com Forums

The Baofeng 5RH Pro (GPS) does as well after I installed the newest firmware update, and a couple Quansheng K series radios I modified using F4HWN firmware and egzumer_v0.22 firmware.

Baofeng on FRS channels - RadioReference.com Forums

Hello, I recently purchased a Baofeng BF-F9V2+. I do not have any licenses yet. After reading multiple forums, it seems that it would be illegal for me to transmit on FRS frequencies. However, from the FCC website, my understanding is that FRS channels are free to use so long as the...

Baofeng - New Baofeng 5RM model | RadioReference.com Forums

While early model Baofeng UV-5R radios were problematic (politely phrased), the quality and spectral purity has significantly improved in past ten years: dispelling early genuine Baofeng model trash talk. The fake clones were garbage. The UV-5R is discontinued and replaced with the third...

My thoughts on Baofeng radios - RadioReference.com Forums

My Retevis, TYT, Baofeng and other "CCRs" as people call them, are capable or receiving things that my $600 scanners can't, especially at greater distances. With the addition of OpenGD77 firmware, they scan adequately for my needs. I have never timed them against my scanners, so I can't say that they "scan as fast as", but they seem pretty close.

I live in Madisonville Ky (western) and recently purchased a cheap DM-1701 to try on DMR. Firmware is upgraded to OpenGD77 and I am using the OpenGD77 CPS to read and write (successfully). All analog channels work fine. However, as a lot of newbies experience, I am having trouble making a DMR...

What is the best Baofeng handheld and why? : r/Baofeng - Reddit

BF UV-5R, BF UV-17 Pro GPS, Baofeng UV-5RM (basically a large UV-5R w/ digital screen and the ability to listen to AM airband channels), and then I recently picked up a Quansheng UV-K5 (8) and an orange UV-K6. All purchased on Aliexpress. I do agree with the others that the Quansheng is your best bang for buck.

Baofeng - RadioReference.com Forums

I recently bought my first scanner, the Baofeng UV-5R. Been trying to find my local PD, and finally found some of what they use. However, their frequency is only 5 numbers, whereas on my screen I still need one more number. Am I thinking about this wrong, are 6 numbers not needed? If 6...

Baofeng - Baofeng UV32/DM32 | RadioReference.com Forums

Does Anyone else think that the Baofeng UV32/DM32 looks like an APX 6000/8000 minus the top screen?
