I purchased this radio in October 2014. It worked fine until the display text disappeared about a week ago. The light still comes on but I can no longer see the frequencies, menu, and battery indicator. Otherwise the radio still works. I use CHIRP to program it so I still know which memory number holds which frequency as the radio announces the number as I advance through but it is an extra step. At first I thought perhaps I had accidentally selected something on the menu to make the text disappear but I can't find in the instructions where that's an option. I believe this is a fluke as I searched and could not find anyone else with the same problem.

He bought these when he and the kids got their Technician class operating licenses. The price point is unbeatable, and the performance is very good considering the price point. As he became acquainted with other operators in the Amateur community he discovered a lot of old time operators bought these just to see what all the talk was about. Highly recommend along with Ham in a Day!

I believe the AC plugs for the chargers are defective. I ordered another radio and had the same issue with the charger so I plugged it in to an adapter I knew worked and the base charger worked fine so I know it is the actual AC wall adapter that is bad and not the charge base.

If you liked the UV5R, this one will make you like them more. The programming is a little tricky manually, but using the software makes it a dream. And not having to change the bands prior to transmitting on the other frequency is a much nicer added feature in this model.

I love this radio. I used a UV-5r (which I also love) for about a year and bought this one because it's more comfortable to hold. I use it for simplex operation only, usually with DCS. The DCS is compatible with the more expensive brands. I can't comment on operating it using repeaters.
I find these radios to be very intuitive to program. Reception with an aftermarket 12" antenna is fantastic. I replaced the stock antennae before I ever turned it on because of my experience with the terrible UV-5r stock antennae, so I can't give a fair assessment of the antennae.
I give it 5 stars because it's the best $45 you can spend on a radio. There are some quirks and drawbacks (the squelch, namely), but I could buy 3 of these and take my gilfriend to dinner for the cost of a vx 270. It's 5 stars for what it is.

I'm very happy with this radio! It's great in a pinch, out about in the yard, or a rental car. Communications are usually very clear and with the programming cable that must be purchased separately, configuring frequencies was a snap.

you cant get anything better for the price.
It's a very nice little toy.
note: the charger will kill your HF spectrum with rfi all over the place, so charge your batteries overnigt!

Great Model. I have two, one given to ham club. The programming cable and software is garbage. Get together with friends and buy RT systems cable and use freeware.

Good rig, I use it in my Prius as a "green" mobile station. I have 2 of the batteries and a charger I homebrewed off the cig plug. So I have a 5 watt mobile and I don't put any stain on the car's batteries. Works nicely with the speaker/mic

As for the operation of the radio, excellent rating. Only one issue, they got rid of the vfo/mem button. The real disappointment came when I turned the radio on and discovered it was a used unit. There is a scratch on the face and had many default settings changed. With 21 channels programed. But, it works ok, and just isn't worth the hassle, since it is working properly. I've got my eyes on you. Amazon, don't do that again!

Excellent radio! It was proved to be better than my other Baofeng BF-F8HP with that I had reception issues. Using now a Diamond SRJ77CA antenna, everything improved and the radio is performing better.

You want a cheap Chinese radio, you get a cheap Chinese radio. It works better with a telescopic antenna. Programming manually is a chore. Battery durability is decent. The hand mike is junk so avoid that.

I bought two of the UV-82 radios to use as handheld marine VHF's on my boat and to use on my hunting lease. I haven't used them for either yet but have tested them to a range of about two miles in a urban environment and the communications were still fairly clear. I expect better range in a rural or marine environment. This radio is easily programmable via the baofeng/FTDI programming cable. It can also be programmed, not so easily, with the keypad if you don't want to name the channels alphanumerically.

Loud Audio, Sleek design, rugged much better than the UV5R. I was really impressed with the stock antenna. Software worked fine too. In Fact I have since ordered another of these.

The bad:
1. This radio is NOT compatible with CHIRP. Also I've been unable to get the Baofeng programming software to even work. All programming needs to be done manually. If this is your first HT, manual programming may seem daunting. More about this later.
2. If there is a way to review a channel's programming other than by on-the-air testing, I haven't yet tripped over it.
3. These radios have a reputation for excessive spurious output. You the user won't notice this, but unwanted signals emitted by these radios can interfere with other radio services. My own testing, which I'm still validating, indicates that 2nd harmonic output on the 440 band is poor and on the 2M band is extremely poor.
4.Battery charging takes between 4 and 5 hours during which time the radio must be off.
The good:
1. Receive audio is really nice, especially for such a tiny speaker. I've been told the transmit audio is also quite good.
2. Battery life is surprisingly good. I've observed listen-only time of about 16 hours on a single charge.
3. I've had no trouble achieving full-quieting into local repeaters with the included antenna. I don't see a need to buy the Nagoya antenna.
4. If you have ever programmed an HT before, you'll quickly pick up on how to program this one. It really is simple. A couple of hours of fumbling around was all I needed to have it figured out. In contrast, I *never* could program my Radio Shack HTX202 without the manual.
5. Price. A lot of capability for what it costs.
Bottom line: If the radio proves to be reliable and particularly if CHIRP is ever updated to work with this model, I'd likely bump up my review to 4 stars.

Great radio for the money. I ordered 3 for my team. Upon putting on the belt clip, one of the screws broke when tightening them. Screw quality could be alot better. I enjoy the radio for what it is, especially when you are spending less than $33.

I've been using this radio for a few weeks; works great. Good value! I like the dual display, as I often have to monitor one frequency while communicating on another.

I already had one of these radios, which is why we got two more. The newer 82L so far is easier to operate, feels better in my hand, and can monitor two channels with ease. It came with everything but a USB cord. Our electronic Guru had the software and cord to program all of the channels for our group. This is a newer version of the 5r+plus, both should serve us well, don't buy just one, get one for everyone in your family or group.......WB

Excellent value. Works great with very long battery life. Manual is useless but there is plenty of info on the web. Programming a little confusing but once you figure it out its ok. Recommend programming cable for PC. Great TX and RX audio. Included headset works good also. I cannot see spending $300 on a radio when you can get this unit for 1/10 the cost. I do wish it had a VFO/memory button. That is my only complaint.
