Which is better UV-5R or UV 82?

The 82 feels better in your hand. The body seems like it would withstand incidental contact with the elements better than the UV-5R, but it’s not waterproof. It also has fewer sharp edges to snag on things. The 82 is about 1″ taller (body only) than the 5R.

Is the BaoFeng uv-5re plus an improved version of the uv-4/uv-5?

I bought a Baofeng UV-5RE Plus, which presumably is an improved version of the basic UV-5. There is lots of information online on the UV-5. Any idea where I can find out what are the differences and new functions for this plus model?

Is the uv-5re worth it on 70cm?

On 70cm, the UV-5RE is somewhat better. But that’s very deep in the noise! I don’t have much out of the band strong signals in my neighborhood. The filters are a bit wide. FM-Narrow is only for the modulation deviation on TX. On RX, the RF filtering is not narrowed (although the audio output volume is slightly higher).

How far can you travel with a uv-5r radio?

Range is about a mile in very rough terrain. All audio is sharp and clear. Was averaging about 6 to 7 miles with the antenna that came with the BaoFeng UV-5R radio. Great thing about the Baofeng as opposed to ones like the Midland, is that all frequencies from 136-174 and 400-480 are fully programmable.
