This radio has airband you can use 5rm on Chirp to program channels in, uv17pro does not allow airband to be programmed, very nice radio and antenna has nice scan features can skip channels you don't want while scanning very nice colors on display and clear, overall very well built radio for ham,gmrs,frs,airband.

I started with the UV-5. For a few dollars more this is a spectacular radio. I have not found anything in this price range that is this nice. Iâve now purchased three of them. And two of my friends have one also. Canât go wrong. You might get better, youâll pay for it.

Yes this a Baufeng so you never know what youâre going to get. This is my 3rd Baufeng variation since the original UV-5R. They donât even tell you this is a 220 MHz capable radio and it does are very nice job there on local repeaters. A new band for me in 50 years a ham!!Radio charges easily with the drop-in charger or the USB connection in back. Battery life is typical Baufeng, very good. Chirp programs easily, but remember to select the proper other model radio for successful programming. Hopefully they will get that bug straightened out.Analog public safety monitoring is also very good sensitivity and good audio quality.All nâ all, a good radio.

Complicated, but really fun once you figure it out. Was really useful on a road trip to communicate while driving across country. Great battery life.

Took me Forever to learn to program this radio. But I guess that is part of the hobby. Nice radio, this is. My favorite radio, that I use. Comes with a lot of accessories (but not the programming cable)Will use this radio daily as travel and around the house.Great Prosuct.

Yes, it receives and transmits on 1.25m/220 band even though it only states it's a dual bander, no special unlocking necessary. Pretty much copy/pasted my 5RM CHIRP over. Display and font are a bit nicer than the blocky blue/white on other Baofengs.Only downside is battery life - I did a SOTA outing with this and drained over half of the battery calling CQ for less than 30 mins.

The Baofeng UV-5R has long been a popular choice among amateur radio fans who want to save money. That being said, this "so called Baofeng" basic ham radio is a whole different story. It doesn't have the programming ease of CHIRP and P15UV-CPS as I tried for three hours. Its low price may be the only good thing about it, but it has a lot of annoying problems that make it hard to suggest.The most significant drawback of this radio is its software. Unlike more user-friendly options, it forces you to rely on a scarce and hard-to-find Baofeng software, which is far from intuitive. One might expect that an entry-level ham radio should be welcoming to newcomers, but this software leaves much to be desired. The absence of support for popular programming software like CHIRP or P15UV-CPS is a massive inconvenience.Another significant drawback is the lack of compatibility with existing Baofeng UV-5R lists. You cannot easily copy and paste frequencies from your UV-5R to this "Non-Baofeng" radio. This limitation is perplexing, given that many users may already have extensive lists on their Baofeng radios.In conclusion, this entry-level ham radio may be cheap yet durable, but it is not very easy to program and the software doesn't do what it's supposed to do while at the same time version 01 is likely another issue as I would like to see an upgrade to this software. This radio is hard for both new and experienced ham radio operators to choose because it relies on bad Baofeng software for this unit, thus you can't use standard programming tools, and requires you to enter frequencies by hand at times, which can be annoying. I do like the color, the durability and the accessories it comes with but I am not impressed "AT ALL" with the programming ability on the desktop software. P.S., watch for tracking software from third party vendors as well.PRO's: Excellent Reception!!! Good Quality (even though mine looks like a return based on smudges on the inside screen). All programming matters aside, this is still a good radio!
