BAOFENG UV-5RM 10W Ham Handheld Radio Long Range with Tactical Antenna, Portable Two Way Walkie Talkies for Adults 5RM Multi-Band Radio with Air Duct Earpiece & 2500mAh Type-C Battery

These are great radio’s and inexpensive. They can be charged with usb which makes them great for car to car communications on long trips.Easy to use with the easy to read manual. Comes with a lot of extra accessories.This pair I put in a faraday bag with a portable solar battery pack. Because these radios are inexpensive and charge with a usb I can afford to leave these in a just in case storage.

Out of the box a good radio, simple to use and program, only 3 stars as one of the two radios has quit working in less than a year.UpdateSeller saw the issue I posted and issued us a new radio, no hassles.Great customer service.

Love my radios. Just got mine in and they work amazing. My only complaint is that the long antenna broke as I want to go thread it in. So now I'm out an antenna and haven't had it 24 hours

I got these for emergency use since we live in a rural area and figured that it would be beneficial. While I am licensed as a marine radio operator from my days as a boat captain in south Florida I can definitely say that these radios are just as powerful and have the same features as the expensive Motorola radio that we had as a back up radio as required by the coast guard . I was so impressed with these I had to order two of the ones with GPS for our cabin and a 6pack of the walkie talkies. I do plan on getting my Ham radio license as well and plan on taking a class that one of my old high school teachers is teaching. I was showing them to a good friend of mine from school who lives farther out than me in fact he is only a few minutes away from our little cabin in the woods and hunting cabin. But my buddy went home and immediately got on Amazon and ordered a set for his farm and loved the idea of the walkie talkies for guests to use just in case they get lost on his 100 acer property. While they are out exploring the farm.Would I recommend these? Definitely and for the price you can't go wrong. I do think that all the fit options should include an extra battery and a radio pouch that can be secured to the belt. But I did pick up a few of the radio pouches on Amazon. I would have definitely loved having these in Florida during the hurricane seasons that we went through in the 30 plus years that I lived there.

Happy with the radios so far. I am only licensed GMRS right now but I am studying for the HAM license. I like that these radios do both.They came already programed with the GMRS and repeaters programmed.We tested them the other day and were able to transmit around 5 miles with the tactical antennas.I purchased an adapter that will allow us to use the radios with our motorcycle headsets and we will be using them on our big group rides as they will have a much longer range than our Bluetooth based headsets.Shipping was fast and the seller sent an email to make sure I was happy with my purchase and offer support if needed.

I love these radio

Nice to have 10 watts to reach out!!And can also use GMRS frequencies (I’m licensed)And hear the air frequencies.Solid build.Inexpensive way to get into amateur radio.

Great product
