And if you make to Prince George and need one. For 135 you get a radio and magnetic mount antenna. 2 minutes and your radio is up and running, in any vehicle

For those interested the newest UV-5RA8 radios i received have a 30% larger battery and one reached 12.1 watts on the tester, all were in the 11 watt range. I don't have the interest anymore to test them though.

I have so many radios and different types piled up everywhere, every dam model and make you can think of. Baofeng just puts anything they want in a radio and puts a different name on it. I guess i just wait for feed back now. I have lots of duds in radios for sure. What i mean by testing is going out in the field and getting real results instead of tester results.

High 12.2 watt Mid 10.4 watts and low 3.0 watts. Maybe i should test this radio out farther. Big fail is the 60 dollar BF-F9HP at 3.0 watts on high that is the V2 version
