You cannot beat that!Īfter using this little rig for a year I have to admit I really like it. As of the date of this posting, the current price on Amazon is $29.40 plus shipping. I was attracted to the price immediately. A fellow ham friend of mine (my Elmer – if you don’t understand the term “Elmer” just click here) pointed me towards the UV-5R as the radio I should possibly start out with. I basically wanted something inexpensive that would allow access to the local repeaters I have in my area. Being a newbie to the ham radio hobby, I didn’t want to invest several hundred (or even thousands) of dollars just starting out. About a year ago I purchased a Baofeng UV-5R as my first dual-band handheld radio.
