This little radio is very easy to use. Fast to program in frequencies and easy to switch. Picks up stations just like its high priced competitors. However, I am not licensed so I don't know how well it works transmitting. But for the price just the reception mode is worth it.

Stay far away from this item. If you love your computer, Do Not download the frequency CD that comes with it. (that is part of the setup process)

I have used it once and found it very easy to use and very effective. It had good range, very clear and the battery lasted a long time. The ear piece that came with it is not good and I bought a different one to use and am very happy with it. The charger that came with it works very fast.

Certainly priced low enough for an introductory HT or pocket monitoring HT or a spare HT. Programming instructions are a bit hard to follow and might be improved. Font in manual is a bit small. All in all very worth the money!

These radios are such a great value. They are easy to program with the programming cable and Chirp software. I do recommend upgrading the stock antenna to the Baofeng V-85 which is a surprisingly capable antenna that is only slightly longer than the stock version. I own a couple of the original UV-5R's and this version just looks more elegant in my opinion.
