The Most Powerful One Yet: BaoFeng BF-F8HP (High Power).

The BF-F8HP is the most powerful BaoFeng capable of transmitting 8 watts! A PC03 FTDI Programming Cable is Recommended for Easier PC Programming

The BF-F8HP is the third and final generation of the UV-5R. Some new features found in the BF-F8HP are the three selectable power levels (Low – 1w, Med – 4/5w, High-7/8w); the BF-F8HP has a better high-gain antenna (7″) that was not available in earlier models; the BF-F8HP also brings back the customizable tri-color display that was not found in second generation UV-5Rs. The BF-F8HP also comes with a Full IN-DEPTH 76 Page User Manual that will help you get aquatinted with all the New Features!

Much like its little brothers (the BF-F8+ and the UV-5R) the BF-F8HP maintains full cross accessory compatibility with all previous UV-5R accessories.

MUST RE-PROGRAM THESE BEFORE USE IN US!!!!! Awesomely versatile, inexpensive alternative to blister pack radios. DO NOT USE THIS RADIO AS SHIPPED!!!!! These powerful and programmable radios MUST be programmed for specific channels (and reduced power!!) before use in the US. If you use these channels as provided, you will quickly find yourself at odds with the FCC and/or military – many of the frequencies that are pre-programmed land squarely in military use only ranges. Make sure that the programming cord for this radio is included, or purchase one separately. Download one of the free radio…

but this one is FAR superior in EVERY way THIS is the one to buy!!!!This is the 2nd BF-F8HP unit I’ve bought from Amazon and I’m not sure why, but this one is FAR superior in EVERY way.

I’m not sure exactly why my other unit (which is “Baofeng” only – NOT “Pofung Baofeng” as this unit is…) is so different – but this one is much nicer. I have *several* versions of the Baofeng HTs – this is the…

Perfect Experiment I’m a brand new ham. I wanted to get a radio that was just barely good enough without spending too much money. After lots of research, I rejected the UVR5, despite a just about perfect price. Too many indications of issues. I didn’t want to spend $150 on a radio only to find I didn’t like the hobby, plus, tons and tons of bells & whistles when I don’t know what I’m doing are a waste. I finally arrived at this radio, very small & inexpensive, like the UVR5, but a little more power, a little more…
