Review on BAOFENG UV-5R5 Dual Band Two-Way Radio: 5W Power, VHF & UHF, Complete Kit with Large Battery (Camo) by Jongkol Amphaiphit ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

No complaints, I recommend to buy.

Poor selectivity, as a result of plugging into an extended antenna, leads to dirty sensitivity in the city. But I make comparisons with the FT-60 and VX-8. Almost an order of magnitude more expensive. It generally opens turnips in a peaceful environment, the modulation is not ice, but it needs a strong three for understandability. Just indulge in two of the ranges. You can utilize it for work, the issue of service life, but only if you have a strong desire to do so.

Pros
  • A security guard's ideal includes an FM receiver among many other things. You can communicate with a repeater and listen to radio bugs on 2 bands. In the wilderness, 2 meters is more preferable (although LB is better, of course). A lot of windfields run on 2 meters, making it one of the easiest stations to stay in touch. For the price, a reasonable battery.
Cons
  • Modulation, AGC, and selectivity.
