Hi all!

So i got a Baofeng made in a colab with Specna Arms - its called Shortie 82 and its an UV82 with different branding, I just need to find out if its truly an UV82 on the inside also. The reason being a Dual ptt by Code Red i got my eyes on, made specific for the UV82.

Does anybody know this perhaps? Couldnt really find anything on Google lol

Hello, I just bought a baofeng uv5rh pro and I can't contact a radio relay near me. However, I have another dmr talkie (retvis rt3s) with which it works perfectly. Here are the frequencies of my relay: TX 145'787.5MHz RX 145'187.5MHz) Did I miss something?

This is my first time programming a UV-5R and it keeps giving me this message. Any help is much appreciated

Hi guys,

Weve got this setup with couple of radios for sports games, but were using wired mics and headphones (XLR to digital mixer) as well. Is there a way to have the output of the mixer as an input for the baofeng radios? Weve got a spare radio, so ideal would be to connect the radio to the mixer as both input on a mic channel and output on a headphone channel.

I saw the TRRS cables but in that case its a combined cable for mic and headphones, right?

Thanks in advance for you help!

I'm following the booklet instructions to delete a channel and it doesn't appear to be working. Using channel 1 as an example:

Menu button, [3][1], Menu button (voice says "Delete Channel", [1], Menu button (voice says "Canceled")

This happening for anyone else?

Trouble is, no mention of software or programming cable. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808077705787.html Anyone get one yet?

My workplace uses these radios and I was wondering if baofeng made a compatible one? Everything I'm reading says radios won't go that high, just to 500 mhz?

Hi. I'm new to ham radios. Some of the people in my local voluntery firebrigade are using UV-82's. Its of season for forest fires so my thinking was buy now and learn the basics. Model of the radio has pre coded channels. On my way to become lisenst ham operator. You would recomend buying this model or some other radio.

I live in northern europa. And sorry about my grammer. Not native speaker and on mobile.

Hi All. I am new to all of this. I am a little ways from my local repeater. I have an external antenna that shows resonant at 2m - granted SWR is not great at 2.1. My thought is, if I can get an antenna tuner, to get SWR down, can I connect my UV-5X3 to it? I am thinking the height of my external antenna may allow me to hit the repeater more consistently. Right now, it is a crap shoot as to if and when I can hit the repeater. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it does not.

So heres something: Baofeng has decided to create an APX 8000 clone. I did post asking about the rumors, and it seems something has come of them. Its apparently called the UV-32. Anyone else heard of it? The current listings i found are from Aliexpress and some random website. Plus, no reviews are out yet. What you guys think?

bonjour, j'ai acheté 2 boafeng 888 reprogrammés fréquence 446..... sur CHIRP

mon problème est que les 2 talkies reçoivent mais n'émettent pas.

quelqu'un pourrait m'éclairer svp?

What’s an easy solution? Either temporary or if it’s easy enough perhaps permanent? Mostly just GMRS

Where I live (not sure about the us) it is legal to listen to FRS frequencies on UHF radios but the issue is with my m-5r is that it isn’t picking up anything at all. Even with the programming. My frs radio is picking it up (as it should) but not the baofeng. Anyone know why or is the radio just not capable?

When I bought my m-5r I got a tiny little “Baofeng” disc with it. When I open it it just has all these files on it. Anyone have any idea what they are?

I run ski trainings and small competitions. You need radios to talk from the top of the run to the bottom. There's never a direct line of sight because there are always humps on the run. For the shorter runs we seem to be fine, then just wondering if there is a better way to help the radios work better on the slightly longer runs? With the range extending antennas do anything of value? Or would it help at the base station to put antenna up on a pole like 8 ft in the air or something like that? I see they have cheap repeaters and I'm wondering if that might work to put a couple radios in the middle of the run?

Walking with cables is really problematic for me. A lot of bushes etc. Is there any adapter or something that supports bluetooth?

I know that the ar-152 isn't the best radio, I got it purely for cosmetic reasons. I just want to know what licenses I need to operate this radio legally. I'm getting all kinds of different answers across reddit, discord and just Google in general. (Sorry for wasting anyone's time)

• Please, I have a question: Do I need Duplex + and Offset/ TX Freq 005.000 to use the repeater?
  • Frequency: 462.550 MHz
  • Output Tone: 141.3 Hz/ Input Tone: 141.3 Hz
• GMSR is Baofeng UV-5G, I am using Channel 23 (462.5500 / 467.5500) RPT-1

• Thank you

Uv22 or k5 plus?

I have joined a county communications group and was curious if anyone has used a Easy-Digi UV5R interface with a laptop.

what if you programming for the ham band you have the last step number is their a cheat sheet for that i had a lot of problem's last time with software

I was given 4 BF-888S and I am trying to program them. I am able to program my UV-5R and GM-30 but these radios keep providing the error “no response from radio”. I am on the newest version of chirp. I also have tried all the tricks with the volume knob and buttons. Anyone have any tricks that worked for them? These were brand new out of the box radios when I received them.

I've been looking at several models of Baofeng, and a few from other manufacturers, like Tidradio and Radtel, and from what I can seem, none of these actually support Airband, they all only support 12500 (Narrow)/25000 (Wide) channel width only, and none support 8330?

Saying the radio supports Airband RX without supporting 8330 channel width is total BS, I'm failing to find a unit that has this feature, now I'm sure the BF-F8HP PRO does, but that radio is not actually available to buy globally, and all of the ones similar to it, after looking closely, only have a selection of narrow/wide, making them horrible to use on AM, the difference to me is like Squelch on or off in UHF, without 8330 its just going to hurt your ears after 2mins, and you will want throw that dam thing at a brick wall.

Does anyone know which models allow 8330 channel width on AM by default? I don't want to buy another radio for this specific task again and find that its really just a UHF set with half a$$ed support for anything outside of that.

I'm thinking I may as well just make a radio using an SDR USB dongle with an old Android phone, at least it will actually support Airband properly.

In this radio you can share youre position to other radios wich decode it is there any software to do it on pc like decode position on pc

Just picked on up from amazon, cant seem to find any videos or any information about it. Manufacturer dosent even tell the max wattage of the radio: https://www.amazon.ca/FONGHOO-IC-5RM-Handheld-Talkies-Charging/dp/B0D7HFD4T6/ref=pd_lpo_d_sccl_1/136-6477392-7350831?pd_rd_w=3oBuv&content-id=amzn1.sym.d3f44101-6e04-446e-916c-a6ec5616982b&pf_rd_p=d3f44101-6e04-446e-916c-a6ec5616982b&pf_rd_r=G1X7WX20FP1C7QKTZT72&pd_rd_wg=y1pVW&pd_rd_r=d74c174b-ed4d-40af-b322-f226ecec2dbc&pd_rd_i=B0D7HFD4T6&psc=1
