Does not work as a radio amateur

Radio advertised as "136-174 400-480 MHz Transceiver". Below 150 MHz, however, there is no transmission. the amateur 2-meter band (from 144 to 148 MHz) does not broadcast it. I didn't have this problem with the UV-5R I bought a few years ago. But this transceiver is totally useless as an amateur 2m transceiver. If you just want to listen (and not broadcast) now, you're done.

Pros
