Review on Black BAOFENG UV-5R Dual Band Two-Way Radio by Koshino Minoru ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

It functions perfectly, nothing unusual.

There has already been so much written about the walkie-talkie that it would be hard to produce any more. For sport activities like fishing and hunting; its use ensures that its loss or destruction would not be a major setback. If you want to keep talking normally, it's best to invest the extra money and get a superheterodyne. The farthest anyone has heard on a NA-771 deuce is 120 kilometers (of course, the other end has a directional antenna, a very high point, and reasonable strength, so you won't shout in the opposite direction). The receiver's sensitivity has been set all the way up. Nevertheless, the receiver has gotten clogged due to interference from the local network, and its selectivity has fallen below the threshold as a result. Within, you need a really robust signal in order to function. There is no fountain in the city, and the city is full of various alarm gadgets and other low-power transmitters, all of which cause the receiver to be even further from the operational frequency, so reception is greater in the field and on the street. Those of us who don't do well with pure ether might be happy about this. Even at a distance of 10–15 kilometers, you can still make contact with the repeater; however, any form of interference will block the entrance, leading to transmissions like "here I hear at 59 with a wide margin, but in half a meter there is no way at all." Plaything that also requires signing up for an account.

Pros
  • little and low-priced
Cons
  • The disadvantages of signal reception by direct conversion are self-evident. The buttons are small and hard, making repeated use uncomfortable.
