As I understand it, the menu, <, >, and exit keys on the top row above the 1,2,3,* keys correspond to DTMF ABCD. There are some eBay sellers for the GT-3TP but they are higher priced than Amazon. A couple had the "best offer" option, but their counter offers were still about even with or a little higher than Amazon, sans 2 day Prime shipping. |

I've been seeing this more and more for many items on Ebay. I was looking at picking up an HP 35S calculator and I see them on Ebay for considerably higher amounts than what Amazon (or Walmart) sells them for ($50). While some have formulas for a PE exam loaded in them and sell for $200, most do not. Seen one trying to sell a plain used one for $180. Good luck with that amigo. |

My GT-3TP showed up today. It is a neat little radio. The vast majority of the menu options are identical to the UV-5R so operating it is intuitive for anyone already familiar with a UV-5R and CHIRP.
The LED does appear to be a higher lumen version. And the signal strength indicator does appear to be functional. I can get it to drop a bar or two while receiving a local repeater if I cover the antenna with my hands. I also verified that the DTMF keys output the correct tones over the air, and the correct side tones, and they do. The unit also receives just fine with the key beep muted. The only historic Baofeng firmware bug I haven't checked is the one where the scan function doesn't stop on channels with some certain CTCSS tones. Nagoya antenna bases are too fat to fit inside the raised plastic ring around the antenna connector on the receiver and need to have a shoulder turned on the plastic antenna base to make them fit into the radio. |

Just picked up 2 of the UV-5R radios off Amazon for 23 bucks each. I also bought a few spare batteries and a programming cable (the real one) and had both running within 30 minutes of opening the boxes.
Best bang for your buck thats for sure |

A legitimate cable is important for those not familiar with tweaking driver versions in Windows.
Here's a quick rundown for those not familiar: The USB serial port chip made by prolific has been counterfeited by Chinese makers. Prolific's response was to update the drivers such that the counterfeit chips would not work. While their original response was a driver that would brick the counterfeit chip, the current drivers simply prevent the device from being operated. Prior versions of the drivers work ok, however, if Windows is allowed to automatically update its drivers you may be routinely rolling back the drivers to allow it work again. It's a dance that I've become accustomed to, but, if I was to do it again I'd spend the extra for the bonfide cable to avoid any problems. |

Looks for listings that state that the chipset is a genuine chipset. Amazon has some claiming to be genuine FTDI chipset with no driver issues. If that's true or they just have a better counterfeit version I don't know. However, Amazon has a good return policy so if it is anything other than what it claims, you are covered. And if you use their locker service it doesn't cost anything to return ship it. Paypal also offers counterfeit protection through their purchases as well. Expect to pay around $20 for a legit cable from what I've been seeing. My understanding is that they use the same two-prong programming cable that Kenwood uses so a legit Kenwood cable could be a way to go, although they tend to be a few bucks more. Someone who has experience with using Kenwood cables can better comment. Another option is to get a standalone USB to DB9 serial port adaptor (assuming PC doesn't have a serial port) and then run a cable that uses a serial port and avoid having a USB to serial adaptor built into the cable. |

This is the best way to make sure. A programming cable that works for the 2-pin Kenwoods will work for the UV-5R and variants. |

Anyone try the new BAOFENG GT-3WP? They are also labeled as BAOFENG BF-A58 and I don't seem to remember the others? They seem like sturdy radios from what I've read and seen. I was going to try out the UV-82HP since I have a UV-5R V2+. I'm trying to find a HT that's realistically affordable, bigger than the standard UV-5R (prefer extended battery over all sized radios) and that can with stand some abuse.

SOMETHING TO ADD ABOUT HEADPHONE / MIC JACK The jacks are rather delicate and many have had problems with them opening and not having speaker sound or mic not working after unplugging. It is not practical nor cost effective to change the jacks. A kit of 1 large, 1 small jack may be purchased but they are designated for one of the Puxing radios. Don't waste the time as it is almost impossible to remove the bad jacks without damaging surface mount components around those jacks. In that case, just toss the radio and buy another. Your time is more valuable than fooling with this. Just like discarding a Bic pen when it runs out of ink. Knowing what I know now, I avoid external speaker-mics. It's just a cheap radio that actually works quite well as a handi-talkie. If you need a tactical radio for your SWAT team buy something else. I have several Baofengs and after losing one to the speaker jack failing and reading of others with the same problem I just decided that until they upgrade to better quality parts I will just use the ones I have like any other walkie talkies. So far that has worked very well for checking in to repeater nets. |

Just thought I would add a bit of i to for those considering g the GT-3TP. The included car charger is a pass through adapter. It passes the full voltage from your car's cigar lighter socket with no voltage regulation. The charging base is designed to work with a 10V input. Some users have reported burning up their charging bases using the included car adapter.

Well,
I fo'd on a BaoFeng BF-F8HP (UV-5R 3rd Gen). Amazon Prime Day buy for $45.00 Got the computer cable for programming and Nagoya antenna for it too; $28.00 extra for those. My 4 year old loves listening to the county dispatch on my phone. Figured this would be more fun for us. Stumbled onto this thread a while back and figured what the hell. Now I'm studying up for tomorrow's delivery. And yes, listening only. |

I ordered the UV-B5 and the 2018 BF-UVB3 Plus 8w. They will be my first radios. I also ordered the Genuine 771 antennas. We will see how they turn out. They should be here in a week or two.
If these radios are solid I may get the UV-XR 10w New Version waterproof. If I would have seen it I would have picked it up over the others. |

Does your stubby have the "dome" top or the regular antenna looking top? The dome top antennas are typically crap but the newer ones moved away from that antenna to a more standard looking one and they are pretty good antennas. By whip are you talking the 701 or 771?

I've not noticed a big difference in performance when using the longer antennas unless I had the radio body mounted like on my warbelt or Plate carrier. In those instances the longer antennas did seem to make a difference but in regular daily use just using the HT on it's own I didn't notice much difference without going to an external antenna.

I bought a UV-5R when they first came out, it died within 4 days.
Sent back, 2nd one arrived. Failed to turn on at 4 days again- Took that one to the range and used it as an AR target at 200M. It worked fine for that. (Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, I am an idiot) So, bought a UV-82. This one is going on 3 years with no issue. But, the use is sporadic if I have another ham visiting with no radio. |

I bougth a coup Fedaxian FD-160 and couple batteries abought 8 years ago. Used them a ton. Had a Slim Jim made out of 1/2 copper pipe on the roof. 100 ft of RG8x. I let it run down the roof and used it out at the picnic table. I would stand in the pool ang get on the 2 meter net a couple time a week.
No problem hitting our repeater in St Louis which has a huge foot print on 5 watts. Well maybe 2 or so after the loss. I also had a 50 watt Motorola amp I put up in the attic about 3 foot away from another antenna inside. With anothe 100 foot of RG8x. I could walk all around the basement. Used it for storms or the net or even simplex which is big around here. I could make 60-70 miles in parts of Missouri There incredibley tough. I have lost count haw many times I drop it on concrete a bunch. Son has one same thing no problems. I bought a FD-460 for 440. The batteries are just about shot but there like 8 bucks. |

These radios aren’t that bad to program. U can use a cheap program cable if u know how to update the drivers. New cables eliminate that problem. Chirp is easy to set memories for repeaters and simplex. A few YouTube videos should get u going. You can manually program repeaters and simplex quickly if you learn the menu numbers. The key is learning what you need and filtering out what all you don’t. You should be able to program a repeater with the freq, then only three menu settings. It takes me about 15 seconds total to program a repeater on vfo. Jus play with it and watch some YouTube videos. They really aren’t that complicated.

Question for all with the uv-b5/b6. Does your battery sit completely flush. Mine has a slight gap in it. Seems from the pressure from the connections. It’s slight but it’s there. If someone else can chime in on how there is it would be appreciated.
