Never had an issue with either version. T1 has excellent range.

It is good enough for BCA channels though.

Correct. Some of our crew use the bca so these work for us. Even T1 to T1 they work great. Range seems to be quite long. Will see how they perform as the season continues.

And only 20 channels.....and only 1 watt.

That is true, but to be fair it is small, light and will transmit 1k or so, but then again Costco has two way radios that would work just as good or better. Packing say a heavier quansheng that pumps out 11 watts of power and reaches out over 2 mountain ranges is over kill in my opinion.

Sell it to Dale, lbz
so you guys are using these baofeng radios for calling up/down the logging roads and backpack/ shoulder radios? with being higher power any different influence on beacons?
I bought a couple of the BCA link radios last year but i find they are not very loud/ clear and i had to tape the channel selector, always seemed to be talking to myself lol

If you want louder and clear you have to get a wouxun mic.

We run Kenwoods and Motorola ( have a few Baofeng ) and I highly recommend them, we have the military spec mic and they work great,, all the logging channels and s&r and other emergency channels are programmed in, You pay more but you get more too

Buddies ride with bca handhelds. I was looking at baofeng for ability to use on logging roads.
I don’t want to pull the radio out of my bag to use it I like the aux mic. On the strap for avi bag.
Who do I gotta buy from to get a good radio with mic and charger set up ready to go?

RGM here on Snow and Mud will set you up. Radio, mic, long antenna, mic cover, pre programmed ready to go. Very good to deal with.

The frequency on RR-04 should be 150.185. It was a mistake on my part. This is one of my old lists.
