The UV-25 is a great radio, however it does feel like some features of a radio of this caliber is missing. Only one of the side buttons can have is functions changed. It would be nice to be able to customize the functions of all 3 buttons, and if they could integrate with the GPS system such as allowing it to toggle it On and Off.
Another feature that would be nice would be the option of selecting different bands for the 2 channels.
Other than this its a solid radio well worth it.
