@Hallau I have the GT-3TP, I like the design much

although it can do with a better antenna I've been told

@Hallau Is the GT5 made by Sainsonic too ?

@Hallau Yeah, I've bought the nagoya 771

or nagoya 701

I don't remember, it's the long one

40cm

would not have a clue if it's made by Sainsonic

only problem I have with mine is I can't figure out how to program it, and it doesn't seem to like setting the offset so I can use a repeater

other than that, it's fantastic

You are in USA ?

Australia

You are using VHF ? 144Mhz ?

yeah, 144-148MHz, don't really touch 70cm

What is the "70cm" thing ?

I've read that somewhere but I don't know what it is

70cm is the 420-450MHz band

Oh, okay

Here in France, it's used by security agents

It's fun to do pranks to them

In France, it's limited at 0.5W output power level, and the baofeng is 8W...

rofl

sounds illegal

depending on licence here, you get 10W or 100W Tx

Anyone know good chink mice models / brands?

with a bit more than 10W, you can talk to the ISS on the 2m band

@CIA call the cops, I don't give a shit :^)

woah....

hardcore........

@Hallau Seriously ?
