Baofeng Handhelds TRR Special

[treypal]

So I've used some of these Baofeng handhelds. They are chinese made like the Wouxuns, but much cheaper. We used them at our race this weekend with good luck. I'm fixing to order a bunch for TRR. If you were on the fence about a radio, this is a good, cheap option for the event. $65 each if you prepay to [email protected]. $75 each at the event. They are dual band, so they cover VHF, and UHF. Will cover all the freqs used by other Raptor Events.


Model: Baofeng Handheld (Model number varies, but they are the same 5 watt radio). Will use the same hand mics as Wouxuns.

Price: $65 presale. $75 at the event. Presale deadline is Monday April 15th. Send payment to [email protected] with a note that it's for the Baofeng handheld.

Sorry TP but...

It's a cheap Chinese handheld. I've gotten different models in the same order. Ill find one. They aren't bad units. Cost vs value is really really high.

 

[All The Way]

They work.... but when they don't, just toss it and buy another. I hear a lot of hams using them.

I'll buy one Trey. You bringing batteries?

What kinda screen do they have? Or do they have one at all?

 

[treypal]

Yeah. LCD screen. Actually multi color backlight too.

Ill have some at the run for sale. Wanted to get a good idea of how many to pick up.

They have a lithium battery and cradle charger.

Know how long they will last when on and can you charge it on a 12V hook up in the truck? My 2010 doesn't have 110.

I don't know it depends on how much you talk on it. We used them at the race
Day. Not much talking though.
