Thank you for posting I always enjoy your videos very detailed
Glad you like them! Cheers
I have the UV21 and it is a pretty neat radio
Good review.
Thank you for the great info! Why do I have the feeling that you were the voice on some Air Force CBTs? Lol 73
Good video and thank you much. 😅
It already was GMRS, maybe was not supposed to be but all three of mine are. 🤣🤣🤣
Same here bought 3 uv5rs in 2011/12. Never opened them till recently. Learning how to use them got gmrs license and ham next.
@@ordyy89 how'd you get one before everyone else?
@@Alchemist39 I have the UV21R
Is this radio better then the Quansheng UV-K6 UV-K5(8) ? What are your thoughts on the Quansheng radio?
Better is hard to define. The K5 is cheap, works OK, and is a great tool if you're into using open source firmware. Can't think of another radio doing that. The K5 is also a ham radio, not GMRS. The GM21 is solid budget class GMRS HT. It is one of several models that fall into that category.
What's the diff between:
BAOFENG GMRS Radio GM-15 Pro
and
BAOFENG GMRS 9R PRO
IP Score. 9R is submersible
I would never buy a radio that put out less than 4 watts. There are many better options out there.
Most budget class HTs output 3-4 watts. Spend a bit more for either ham or GMRS and you get closer to 5. Cheers.
