First of all, this device is an amateur radio, not as Partial touted a PMR device, although one could spark with this device on PMR and Freenet channels, but that's due to the high power of 0.8W measured and 3,7W in Germany banned, here's the limit at 0.5W. The device makes a really good impression, the additional radio and the "torch" are a nice gimmick for the price. The modulation is clear, but a bit small and quiet, rather "good" PMR height. The software chirp and a suitable data cable in the network freely available to the radio can be programmed quite good, directly on the device which is very tedious and the operation is quite used to, but it has long been something to "play". The unit has 128 memory channels. Who What easier, even more favorable with significantly lighter and use only 16 memory channels for pure sparks on 400-470MHz ("PMR") searches, I recommend the Baofeng 888's or its successor Baofeng Pofung GT1 and a data cable, the modulation and transmission power the same as the UV-5R Plus.
