No disclaimer needed. I bought this with my own shrinking wallet. You can buy it on Amazon here: www.amazon.com...
It's very dirty on 2m, but it's clean on the other bands. I'd gladly use this on 220 (if there was any activity near me) and 440 .
Interesting: It draw 1A and change while charging vs. the UV17, which draws about .7A vs. the Quanshen UV-K5, which draws .4A. What's the significance? I don't know, but it may mean that it charges faster.

Another great video mate, you get a mention in my next video for something you've highlighted! Keep an eye out :)

@alee2969 День назад

Wow if they had a customizable firmware (like Quansheng) that would be even better.

Great video! How did you upload the picture to the boot screen? Was this done through CHIRP? Thanks

@EWSRadio 2 дня назад

It's an option in the Baofeng CPS software. It's under Tools-Upload startup picture to radio. It has to be 160x128 in size.

What upgrade antenna would you recommend?

@EWSRadio День назад

I like the Nagoya 771 or the signal stick.

Good job Sir! I have mine arriving on Monday. The 2M harmonic is merely the sacrificial lamb and not like it will start WW3 or anything. I like the form factor of this one. I also bought the 5RM for the same reason. It just happens to be a good radio as well.

I like the zones design. It lets me put contacts into categories.

Can the GPS function be turned off?

@EWSRadio 2 дня назад

Yes, you can turn off the GPS receiver. And that's a good thing, because if it can't get a signal, it drains the battery really quickly.
