[@rickkephartactual7706]

Do you ever actually test products or just read the spec sheet? Those transmit/receive distances will most likely never be able to achieve 50% of the advertised distances. I would prefer a real evaluation with actual usage.

[@yorktown2203]

But requires actual work. It's much easier to Google photos and copy the spec sheet into a text to voice

@@donalderickson-si8ww you are lucky to have a repeater you can do that with. There is only one repeater within 15 miles of me and it is for private use only, they won't let others access it.

Note: in the beginning. FM is not a band. It's a mode of operation.VHF is 30 to 300 Mhz. UHF is 300 and up.

[@jplacido9999]

You are right. Tech ignorance lets people talk about FM like being a band, but it is only a modulation mode. They can't understand that they should refer as FM Broadcast band (87.5 - 108 MHz receive ONLY)

[@No_Sabo_Manga]

Just so people know only FRS is legal to operate without a license. GMRS and HAM will get you a fine since you need a license to use those frequencies. Number 5 is for sure a HAM radio.

[@tonyv8925]

Also, to clarify...as long as the radio does not transmit over 500milliwatts (1/2 watt) on GMRS it is legal to operate without a license. Also, operator must standby on GMRS frequencies if licensed services are using the frequency.

[@Leyenda1]

How will they find iut?

[@ziggymane3507]

The fcc has biiger fish to fry they wont mess with you

[@RKingis]

@@tonyv8925 Actually, no. You must ID on any GMRS radio, even half a watt. The FCC reclassified most dual service radios as FRS, unless it has a removable antenna, can transmit up to 5watts, or accesses repeater channels.

yes it is but before know the baofang could tune f r s channels but know it is band as the F C C said no.

[@FuryfistX]

did you buy one? im seeing alot of information on ham radios and all that as well. I just need one that has around genuine 15 - 20 miles range. people are saying if it says 35 miles you can consider is 3 to 5 miles. thats kind of frustrating as well

[@yutubl]

Motorola T 600 H2O reminds me of 3-in-1 survival radio-lamp-solar-charger, which leads me to the very near question: Are there walky talkies with FM band and photovoltaic cell charge and enough battery capacity as powerbank? That would be a smart outdoor electronic gear.

[@mushupat]

For T92/T600 it is not "H-twenty", but "H-Two-Oh", like the water molecule. Also I never saw the best of the free, cheap and durable radios - the Retevis RT24.

[@mohammadbararti5443]

hi I have a question: is there any difference between UHF frequencies?? for example, I mean is there any difference between 410.5 MHz vs 470 MHz?? I'm a mountain climber and I have purchased a uv82. now I want to know which frequency should I use in mountains and forests to achieve the most range? and also which frequency should I use in outdoor(such as deserts) to achieve the most range? or there is no difference between 410 & 433 & 470 MHz at all !??

[@itsapittie]

The distance over which you can communicate depends primarily upon three factors: (1) Obstructions. If there are no obstructions, i.e. you have a completely clear path such as from one mountain top to another, the distances can be surprisingly long. This is usually what the company is touting as maximum range when they sell the radio, so a "20 mile capable" FRS radio is typically good for 1-2 miles under real-world conditions. (2) Power. FRS radios are limited to 2 watts whereas the Baofeng he listed can transmit with up to 8 watts of power. More power means more distance and clearer communications but it's still adversely affected by obstructions, just not as much. (3) Equipment. An antenna perfectly matched to the frequency you plan to use can make a significant difference in practical communication distance. The ratio of the antenna length to the wavelength is the key factor. By regulation, a radio sold as an FRS radio must have a non-removable "stub" antenna. A longer antenna doesn't always mean better communication but the ideal length is almost always longer than the stub antenna on a normal FRS radio. Since you can only have a "perfect" antenna match for one frequency, replacement antennas are typically "tuned" for the middle of a given range of frequencies and since the "spread" of FRS/GMRS frequencies (462.6626 - 467.7125 Mhz) isn't very large, that's good enough. Again, the Baofeng is the only radio on this list with a removable/replaceable antenna and I know from experience that a good aftermarket antenna tuned for the GMRS band makes a noticeable improvement in distance and clarity. At this point it bears pointing out that the Baofeng BF-F8HP is a HAM radio and technically isn't approved for use on FRS/GMRS frequencies even if you have a GMRS license (available from the FCC without any test for $35/10 years). Using the F8HP on GMRS frequencies is technically a violation of FCC regulations but according to their own records of actions taken, nobody has ever been fined or imprisoned for merely transmitting on those channels with unapproved equipment unless they were also intentionally doing something to create problems for other users. I'm not saying it's okay to use it on FRS/GMRS frequencies; I'm just saying that nobody has ever been punished just for doing that. Of the radios on this list the Baofeng BF-F8HP with an aftermarket Nagoya NA-771G antenna would probably give you the best results. There is a plethora of HAM walkie-talkies similar to the Baofeng, most of them more expensive, some of them arguably better but the Baofeng is a good "bang for the buck." In your case, since you already have the UV-82, I would just put on the Nagoya antenna and call it good. That's the long answer. The short answer is that there's no frequency within the practical range you listed that will predictably work better than any other.

[@donaldsmith3048]

You should say that the Baofeng people need to pass the test to get a Ham Radio license before using it. There are to many people out there using them on frequencies they should not be using it. The FCC is getting after them!

[@Americanpatriot-zo2tk]

I’ll bet the FCC is going to be all over them when they decide to lock the United States down they don’t want people to be able to communicate other than your cell phone.

[@urbnctrl]

And the fines are no joke either holy shit

[@kidthorazine]

The FCC very rarely actually does this merely for talking on a band you aren't supposed to (unless it's like ATC or something, which is in a band the Baofeng can't do) That being said they make pretty poor walkie talkies since you have to program them and whatnot.

[@Ryder___mus]

😂 you don't need to get the license to be able to get one... I have one my self and I don't need the license

[@621gotdown4]

If you use a baofeng ham radio on frs, gmrs, murs, the FCC isn’t gonna wast there time on catching you. However if you interfere with police/fire dispatch, you will get charges. (probably)

My Motorola T-465s are all I need. Plus being a Ham operator the Baofeng F8HP is my go to radio instead of my Yaesu FT-65R in extreme conditions. When we say "best", do you really mean "most expensive"? Understand people that being "water resistant" does not make it "water PROOF".

[@markcaldwell778]

Don't care what anyone says, drop your 'waterproof' radio in water and it will be f**ked. And as with all rechargeable batteries you need to get the highest mAh possible for longer use. If youve bought cheap rechargeable batteries they're likely to be low mAh so will constantly need charging.

[@BamaChad-W4CHD]

This video is terrible. A radio like a Baofeng isn't a "walkie talkie". It requires a license to use on most of its frequencies. Someone could easily pick one up and interfere with emergency services all over the world. You may want to consider the misinformation you put out. Even if you use the Baofeng radios on FRS frequencies like most walkie talkies use then you are still breaking the law. The other radios in the video are fine but do not buy a Baofeng to use as a walkie talkie. It could lead to big trouble if you transmit on one with out the proper license and general knowledge to use it correctly. I'm speaking for the US. Not sure of the rules in other places but many countries have similar laws about radio frequencies.
