  • Good radio, great value
Color: Yellow
I'm a long-licensed Ham with a General class license. I recententI got back into the hobby after many, many years away. My primary handheld is a Yaesu VX-6R, which I bought primarily because it's submersible and I can take it with me when I'm kayaking! So much of what I'll say here is as a result of comparing the two! But with that said, I'll cut right to the chase and say I really like the UV-82HP...I liked it enough to buy another one a week later!! Now, realize, the Yaesu costs 4X as much, which might at first glance make you wonder if the BaoFeng was going to suck in comparison! Well, it doesn't!! In fact, in terms of audio quality, and reported signal strength from contacts I've made on 2m and 70cm, they are indistinguishable from each other! With the same antenna, from my office, I can hit the same machines, get the same signal reports, and listen with more or less equal sound quality. Now don't get me wrong...I'm not saying it's a better radio than the Yaesu! For one thing, the Yaesu is a tri-band radio, and the BaoFeng is dual band! But still, for 1/4 of the price of the Yaesu, you get a lot! Dual band, dual view handheld. Dual PTT switch. More power. And, it includes accessories (desk charger, earbud with PTT switch) that cost extra for the Yaesu! These work well, though I cannot get the included foam sock over the earbud no matter how hard I try! Battery life seems good...definitely better than my Yaesu! So, if the performance on 2m and 70cm are equivalent, and given that the BaoFeng comes with stuff you don't get with your Yaesu, at 1/4 the price, you may be asking why anyone wouldn't choose the BaoFeng? Aside from the waterproofing and the third band capability, the big difference between the two is in how they're programmed. The Yaesu allows more options for storing and scanning memories, and it allows a lot more of them to be stored! For example, my Yaesu allows me to assign memories to one or more 'banks', and I can choose to scan all the memories, or a bank of memories, or more than one bank of memories. You can't do that with the BaoFeng UV-82HP...when you scan, you scan ALL the memories...and there's no way to omit a subset of repeaters (say ones that are in the Fort Worth area), when I'm home (near Dallas), or to omit the home repeaters when I'm in Ft Worth! And while I'm talking about scanning, I should mention that the BaoFeng scans memories very slowly. VERY slowly. Slow enough that I can read the names of the channels as it scans them. You're not gonna do that with the Yaesu...it scans several times faster than the Bao Feng. If you want to assign names to the memory channels on the BaoFeng, you can...but you have to do it using software and a computer, and upload it all to the radio using an interface cable! The Yaesu allows entering channel names without having to resort to the computer. To be completely honest though, you're going to want to program either one of these using a computer and an interface cable. Programming without one is possible, but it's a pain in the rump! Another thing I didn't care for was this; if you program the BaoFeng with your PC (using CHIRP, for example), and you assign names to the frequencies you enter into the memory channels, you lose the ability to see what frequency that channel is on! I programmed all the local repeaters with the name of the city they're in. For example, I named the repeater's IN Dallas as 'dall1', 'dall2'. But once I did that, I couldn't see what the frequency was, and I don't have them memorized. I want to be able to see what the frequency for a given channel IS, even if I have to press a button or two to display it,but you can't with the BaoFeng. To get around this, I programmed a duplicate of each channel...so channel one is named Dall1, and channel two, which is the same frequency, isn't named...So, as I'm scrolling through, every other channel is a named channel, and if I want to know the frequency, I scroll to the very next channel and I can see it!! This works pretty well...But, it cut the number of repeaters I can program by half! Since I started with 128 memory positions, if I do it this way, I cut that down to 64! I'm sure that I'll remove some of the lesser used machines eventually, and recover some slots! But it's something to think about, especially if you want to program other channels from other bands...like weather band channels, or police and fire frequencies, etc. About programming....Having to turn the radio off and then back on while holding the menu button to swap from frequency mode to channel mode is getting a bit annoying, but I suspect that will abate some as I finish programming the radio. The Yaesu flips between memory mode and frequency mode at the press of a button! On the other hand, I didn't find that programming the radio manually was all that difficult. It's at least as easy as programming my Yaesu. And the '0' is in the right place on this BaoFeng! As I was initially programming it (manually), it seemed like I was only able to save to a memory channel if I was in frequency mode. I don't know if this was true in all cases, or just saving to an empty channel, or what...but if you have issues saving to memory, or saving changes to an existing channel, it may be because you're in channel mode. I'm just throwing that out there as an observation...I haven't really dug into it to see what the specifics are. This particular BaoFeng model comes with a pretty decent manual. I was prepared for one that was basically worthless, and was pleasantly surprised! Ergonomically, I like this radio. It feels comfortable in my hand, and feels solidly built. I have never owned any previous BaoFeng radios, but I've heard that they were much cheaper feeling than this one. Be aware that when you get your BaoFeng, it's going to come with a couple of pre-programmed memories. I thought at first mine was used...but I saw a funny youtube video that indicated they're all this way. I did a complete reset for mine, and it wiped those channels clean. I'm taking off a star because of the limited memory channels, the limited scanning options, and the issue with not being able to see the frequency of a named memory channel. Nevertheless, I feel the UV-82HP is a good radio and a great value. If both of mine were lost or stolen, I'd buy two more to replace them! ... show more

  • Outstanding Value
Color: Standard Black
I have been a ham for 50 years but this is the first handy-talkie I purchased for amateur bands. I am generally not a fan of HTs. I have operated and serviced many VHF and UHF HTs back in the day. So, this review is probably biased a little bit towards what I've seen in commercial and industrial applications. Without considering the extra features for ham use, the Baofeng UV-82HT checks most of the boxes. Overall, it seems like a good radio. But, as some say, the devil is in the details. There are some great features and in my opinion some warts. That said, let's get to it. I think the great features (not necessarily unique) are: User Manual is well written and illustrated in English, and is actually helpful! Dual Push to Talk (PTT) / Dual Watch This is fantastic. One can monitor two frequencies at once: UHF/VHF; VHF/VHF; or UHF/UHF. To transmit to one or the other just press either the A or B PTT as applicable. A question is what happens if both have a signal at the same time? If you don't want this feature it can be turned off. Three programmable transmit power levels: High-Medium-Low For VHF: H=8 Watts, M=4 Watts, L=1 Watt For UHF: H=7 Watts, M=4 Watts, L=1 Watt Battery Voltage Display Press the “0” key for about 2 seconds and battery voltage is displayed; for example, DC8.2V It also displays the legacy battery ICON with bars to represent battery reserve. Ability to listen to broadcast FM, NOAA Weather, etc Press the F key below the PTT and listen to some tunes on FM Radio while your favorite repeater is idle. Reception of a signal on your active channel will interrupt broadcast FM radio and put you on the active channel. You won't miss a call. FM reception will resume after a little delay when the VHF/UHF signal ends. There is a scan feature for FM that will stop when it gets a signal, regardless of which scan mode is programmed. NOAA weather can be programmed from the keyboard in VFO mode or with software. With software you can skip the scanning of this channel. There is a built-in LED flashlight on top of the radio that can shine steadily or strobe. Comes in various colors How cool is that? I bought a blue one. Some of the warts Squelch threshold adjustment, or the lack thereof? The adjustment is made by programming a digit (0-9) into menu 0. The default setting is 5. Programming a 0 will open squelch continuously. I have tried different digits and there is little change in squelch threshold. Recently a weak, fading signal on 2 meters kept opening the squelch when nothing but noise could be heard. It could not be squelched – no matter what I programmed. Annoying! Like audio volume, squelch adjustment works better when analog. A dual concentric audio/squelch pot would be great. Scanning / Memory – Channel Mode There are 128 channels that can be programmed with either a VHF or UHF frequency, CTCSS, etc. However, the scanning rate is 3 channels per second. Obviously, scanning a large number of channels is impractical. You will probably want to scan only a dozen or so. A given frequency must be stored in a memory to scan it and each channel in memory will be scanned unless programmed to skip. With CHIRP this is easily done by placing an S into the skip column of the channel table. It doesn't appear to be possible to skip scanning a channel by a keyboard entry. VFO Mode Awkward and cumbersome. It enables manual programming via the radio keypad. The user manual suggests VFO mode is useful for experimenting in the field and programming is somewhat difficult at first. I would say its painful. You must first specify a vacant memory channel. This is problematic. You can scroll through the memory channels: 1,2,3... or enter a channel number from the keypad, but I have found no way to determine which, if any, channels are empty. Once programmed, a channel cannot be edited using the key pad. The channel must first be deleted. This insures that an existing cannot be overwritten. Scanning is possible in VFO mode. It can scan by incrementing the frequency in fixed steps as programmed in menu 1, STEP – Frequency Step. This scanning mode is very slow and probably not practical for many. Radio Case and Battery Case The radio case is pretty solid and feels good in the hand, but the bottom is not flat. There are two plastic nubs on the bottom of the case and two more on the bottom of the battery. There is also two rectangular depressions, one in the battery, another in the radio. If you set the radio upright on a hard surface it is unstable and can easily fall over. Not cool! Charger When placed on a hard surface, the charger can slide easily. There are four circular ridges on the bottom presumably for feet pads, but no pads were provided for my charger. Not a huge deal, but I fume when the charger, along with my radio, slides around with the slightest touch. Finally, the LED on the charger is red while charging, green when finished charging, and flashes multi-colors when you remove the radio. OK, maybe this is not a wart, but it annoys the heck out of me and it attracts small children. Why not just turn the LED off? Summation Any design involves compromises between performance, features, aesthetics, price, etc, leaving room for improvement. I think the UV-82HT is designed with a good mix of compromises. The radio has more features than I will likely use. It is very flexible. I have not tested any performance specifications. Perhaps I will in the future. Meanwhile, I can enjoy operating it. I like it a lot. It is an outstanding value. I give it 5 stars and my recommendation without hesitation. 73 ... show more
