Review: Really good radio, long range and very good battery life - This is the 2nd UV-5R I’ve bought, this time for my brother. We use it whilst driving which is a complete different experience, the range goes for about 4-5 miles on the motorway and about 2-3 miles in the city. The dual band is very useful when we are in convoy with others and the battery lasts up to 2 days of constant use. Sound quality is pretty good and it’s really easy to use. Would recommend buying an external wired speaker mic for when driving. Would definitely recommend!
Review: Great little radio - A great first radio, for those wanting to become amateur radio operators.
