    Baofeng UV5RA Ham Two Way Radio 136-174/400-480 MHz Dual-Band Transceiver (Black)

    • That being said, it feels like a solid build and it's not too difficult to learn how to operate it if you know other radios.
    • If you are looking for a well built radio that will meet your needs on a fixed budget this radio is for you.
    • But the build feels solid enough for what it's meant to do
    • Great well built product
    • With the local EMS/PD/FIRE and weather stations preprogrammed, and all of the common walkie-talkie bands added, this is a great tool for daily use (well built) or for the emergency bag.
