wot

what radio freq range am i looking for with the antenna

the nagoya? I don't think it matters, chinks always lie about freq range anyway from what I understand

so i should just get the nagoya

or can i get a cheaper one

nagoya is usually recommended, I've not got the radio yet, just seen 10,000 reviews

but there's lots out there

get the one with best reviews

NSKI has good reviews and its cheaper

looks like a clone

only 63 reviews though

there is an even cheaper one with 137 reviews

cheaper stuff usually gets more reviews

is dis even legal?

those are local ISP's

illegal to transmit

legal to listen usually

can baofeng do both?

but you can't listen to isps

yeah it can

there's a push to talk button

basically just never touch it

@Deleted User what do you put in this site

if you want to talk you need a license and call sign

ooh man all these frequencies

I clicked through

wow

dunno, go to the main page and you can filter by country

yeah those frequencies will work

there are online versions of amateur radio you can use

and if you get your ceritifcation you can use apps on your phone too

I was listening to an underground political debate show on ham radio earlier

from england

emergency freqs for chile

should i get a uv-82

or a 5r

it doesn't really matter

from what I can tell they're all the same

there's a comparison page on baofeng's site

https://baofengtech.com/pdf/CompareChart.pdf

https://baofengtech.com/comparechart

it all looks like the same shit to me

for 5 bucks more i think the 82 is worth it

well the 82c is the only fcc compliant

it's retarded how many thousands of baofengs there are out there

with most of them only difference is a mild redesign

only difference from 5r to 82 is 700 to 1000mw

http://www.gearbest.com/walkie-talkie/pp_182204.html this is the most recent one

I found a comparison with it included before

and the Push to talk button is different

it was on flash sale a few days ago

was cheaper than the uv-5r despite being practically brand new

in terms of release date

>UVB2 PLUS
>there was never a normal UVB2

chink naming conventions

dont think i want a 16 in antenna

at least for portability

can't just replace it?

the ones you recommended is 16.5 in

https://www.amazon.com/BaoFeng-BF-F8HP-Two-Way-136-174MHz-400-520MHz/dp/B00MAULSOK?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0 these are the high power one

you can do the same thing by replacing the battery of the UV-5R

there is only one type of battery

sup amd

it was a misprint
