The UV-5R Plus is an affordable entry AFU, which almost all required functions "onboard" has. It would be desirable, however, when a scan between the selected frequency ranges (ala Alinco) would be possible or when scanning the memory channels individual channels could be left out. With regard to quality, however, offered a little caution - devices are indeed processed robust, however, were of 4 supplied devices 2 defective (scan and delete the memory locations 0 to 127 was not possible despite Reset on the 2nd device the internal micro not work (only external. Mike worked) - devices but were withdrawn without objection.
Conclusion: Aside from the minor inconveniences - at the price a nice handheld AFU. However recommend to pick up the serial programming cable, since the USB version available on 2 computers worked only sporadically which is a bit annoying to anyone .......
