Review on Walkie-talkie Baofeng UV-82 (2 power modes) by Franciszka Henke ᠌

Honest and uncompromising review. I read laudatory reviews for the younger model uv5r, I decided to buy uv82, the price and functionality attracted. A walkie-talkie is needed for work on snow removal (roof cleaning). The voki-toks were infuriated by the fact that guards hung on your channel, the builders were vira-main, well, the same climbers to the heap. It came straight to the mat on the air from my side. In short, a walkie-talkie with subtones was needed. I bought it like nothing when two of my own and with an assistant on Ale. Loud Roger, a tangent on his collar, you work in your pocket, a pillar of snow. Even if the delay was set large so that the battery would not die quickly, then in the case when the word stop did not break into the air from the assistant, Roger sounded and you heard him and became alert, do not throw snow. The problem arose when you make friends with other walkie-talkies. There was an example - they worked already in the spring on the facade, there was a construction site nearby, a man came with kenwood tkf6 walkie-talkies, I made friends with mine, set subtones . but the working crane interfered with me. There was a fierce crack. Everything was fine with my colleagues. myself and voila - either I didn’t hear my colleagues, or they heard me, but they heard each other. In the case when I was in the basement or on the opposite side of the building, I had problems. Questions about charging batteries in the field from portable solar panels, here the baofeng loses to woki-currents with the simplest. So, taking into account other jambs, for example, when the power is accidentally switched to low, while the keyboard is locked, this walkie-talkie receives an honorable three points. And whoever says about 10 km range, I don’t really believe something. 5 in rural areas is possible
