Hi Canam,
I would like to know if you guys can get the BaoFeng BF-F8HP radio?
Thanks
from what I read I wouldn't buy one.
If they came out with a true new gen UV-5R I wouldn't be able to resist
I'm very happy with my UV-5R
My UV-5 is 8 watts, has a 3800mah battery, extendable antenna, and external mike.
Yes it is.
My first one 1/4 watts dual power, this one is a full 8 watts, the 1, 4, 8 watt radios have TP (tri-power) designation behind the UV-5R.
Thanks Randy, I have had a couple Yaesu ft50r's for many years and at 5 watts they perform quite well. I wouldn't be surprised if the Bao-feng's are not putting out 8 watts but if it's a solid 5 watts that's good enough for me!
Our Government trusts rivets more then law abiding gun owners.
Just be careful, as some of the TP radios are not true tri-power radios and are just the low powered 4 watt with the TP label.
on a somewhat related note, is the uv-5r programmable using CHIRP or anything for freqs below the factory settings?
I couldn't get mine to go to 123.200 the aircraft channel. We use that freq for blasting operations.
Local airport is 123.000
