Review on πŸ“» Enhanced BAOFENG GT-3TP Mark-III Dual Band Two Way Radio Handheld Transceiver - 8W/4W/1W Power Options, Including Car Charger by Jero Fontaine

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great - CB and Radio

It works better than my average "32 mile" range, the average range is actually 2.8 miles across corn fields with a few trees. I was able to get a clear signal a half mile away with no play and sat in my truck with the antenna out the window. so some glitches. So far I have used FRS/GMRS stations. Now that the radio is working, I will make an appointment for the Ham Radio Technician license exam. It allows me to reach my kids at school almost 5 miles away. I think if I took a 40 watt base unit with antenna home my kids could contact me on our GMRS frequency/channel. But I will most likely get my amateur radio license as I have already learned and can use more of this little radio. Most likely I will buy a higher antenna. The main factors that affect the signal are obstacles, distance, radio power, height, size and quality of the antenna. I am impressed. It has already outperformed more expensive standard radios.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak
