Love the UV-5R
These are great ham radios. The value is incredible. These radios are built like a tank. they arnt waterproof, but I havenโt had an issue with rain. Can be unlocked easily for transmit on uncertified frequencies but do that at your own risk. You may make the FCC sad. And as always, make sure you have the proper licenses for the frequencies you intend to use and follow FCC guidelines for communicating on those frequencies. Even if unlicensed you can use these to listen in. You can transmit unlicensed only if it is an emergency and your radio is your only means of seeking help.

Great radio but
So yea its a great Lil analog VHF/UHF Amateur Handheld Ham Radio. But I did some research on it and I learned that online others have said that the stock antenna ain't worth a squat. So it is best to invest in an aftermarket Antenna which they are correct I've had the same issue before with a different radio I wasn't able to pickup very many frequencies until I bought an aftermarket Antenna. The second I turned on the radio with the aftermarket Antenna I was picking up all kinds of frequencies. I am working on trying to get my Amateur Radio Operator License so I can use it but I'm gna see if my Local Radio Club might have some spare Antennas for my 2 Radios. Hey these are great radios if your not lookin something a fancy expensive 2way VHF/UHF Handheld Ham radio. It's great for beginners tbh. I'm a bit passed beginner radio guy. I'm jus a bit late cuz wen I was first tryin to get my License it was wen they had you learn Morse Code and now you don't. My goal is to build a huge collection of radios wit huge towers.

FCC Licensing is a ROYAL Pain in the @@@
I love the radios! They have good weight and feel good in the hand. Haven't had a chance to use them yet, because FCC can't seem to figure out what license I need to legally operate them. (I'm thinking probably just an amateur radio license) but we ARE talking about a government entity. So who knows. Anyway, once I get everything sorted, I'll give them a good run and let you know how they work out in the field. Till then, Cheers! I know it's been a while. But finally had a chance to use the radios. They work great! Good distance. My hiking party, one day, we're hiking the sixes river area here on the oregon coast. As I decided to check out a little spur trail, the others trudged on up the main trail. As I hiked on down this little trail, I heard my son call out on the radio. Gave me his coordinates and turns out, we were about 2ยฝ miles apart (as the crow flies) And signal was crystal clear. Oh and the call out from my son was just a check-in. It was a great day and hike!

Genuine deal - got it as two separate radios and not packed in the same box like Iโd expected, but that didnโt matter. Radios themselves work great, with everything expected.
