BAOFENG UV-5R Dual Band Model VHF/UHF 136-174&400-480Mhz Upgraded Handheld Radio(BLUE)
  • Dual Band
  • Dual Display

firstly, unit delivered sooner than predicted. these unit for some reason are sold on other web sites as spin off of Icom with icom products looking/ specifications same !! I own icom products, and believe underneath it is possibly a icom product being sold as such with a mystery reason sold so cheap. these are excellent units that have features that exceed if not contain features not found at all even on high end radio"s costing up to 400$$ !! i know cause i own them all. reception good, especially comes to the repeater system. i put a stubby anntenna on, and easily get 20..30 moile range, even the fm radio strong reception. and the volume is loud. the only down fall, unless your a techie like me, programing can be tough ! I could go all day with details about these units, but by all the reviews think wasting my time as they all say same what i would say. good units a gift at this price, why i bought 3, wierd ? naw, cause i love these and good for years to come. they are built with metal..no plastic !! highly recommend., especially for the techie, for others, get the download cable.
