Review on Black BAOFENG UV-5R Dual Band Two-Way Radio by Paul Mac

Revainrating 2 out of 5

. my new radio a few days ago and i love it. My nephew got.

I got my new radio a few days ago and I like it very much. My nephew got me into ham radio and he suggested this one, a really nice little radio, smaller than I thought it would be. Works great, once you understand what you're doing with it all I can do now is listen to it. But I will study and hopefully it won't take too long to pass the test to get my driver's license. 100% satisfied with the radio, also ordered the original 15.6 inch Nagoya NA-771 whip antenna from BaoFeng Tech. It came in the mail yesterday, which has really increased the communication range with repeaters in my town. About 6-7 miles on average with the antenna that came with the BaoFeng UV-5R radio. That's now double my range of 14-16 miles. I have to thank Revain, KoCo-Go for the radio it came from and BaoFeng Tech for my new Nagoya NA-771 antenna.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Can be retrofitted
