I listened on this radio and heard some guys complaining that with a cheap Chinese Baofeng they get better reception than with this device (even though they live in the same neighborhood), and they were right xD
-
A good quality radio at this price, and additionally resistant to water.
-
Great equipment, like most products of this brand. The radio is water and dust resistant, well-made, and quite heavy. The range is impressive. Definitely worth recommending.
-
In terms of operation, it is similar to other Baofeng models, but it is heavier, more solidly built, and also resistant to water and dust. It has an interesting sound and light alarm option. Unfortunately, standard headsets with a Kenwood plug do not fit. Nevertheless, the device works well and has replaced my UV-82.
