[Ideal GMRS HT] The Baofeng UV-5G is the GMRS version of the classic model UV-5R. It features 30 GMRS pre-programmed channels + 11 NOAA channels. These radios are ready to go, right out of the box. A GMRS license is required. FCC ID: 2AN62-UV5G. Sold in a package of 2 radios, good things always come in pairs.

[Longer Talking Range] The UV-5G GMRS is repeater capable and has the 8 repeater pairs programmed in from Channel 23 to 30. GMRS power levels and the wide-band capable signal will allow a further talking range than FRS radios. When used with a GMRS Repeater, the range is greatly increased.

[Classic Design] Compatible with BL-5L 3800mAh extended batteries as well as other accessories of UV-5R series, except antenna. Works well with Six-way Charger.

[NOAA Scan & Receiver] Always one step ahead of the terrible weather. The NOAA feature automatically scans and receives weather reports from the channel, letting you know when bad weather is coming. An alternative communication option in case of disaster when cell towers are always overloaded. Use it as your emergency radio!

[Simple Operation] Easy to read with tri-color display. Most basic settings are accessed via the Menu and Keypad. Features 9 sensitivity levels for VOX hands-free operation. 128 Channels, 50 CTCSS tones, and 104 DCS Digital Coded Squelch choices. More advanced settings are available when connected to your computer.

Review


Why choose GMRS over FRS?

GMRS repeater capable. UV-5G, the long distance walkie talkies, can take advantage of GMRS repeaters to get a more powerful, further-ranging signal. -- This is not an option with FRS radios. GMRS radios allow Wide-band FM to provide a louder and clearer signal than the FRS radios restricted to Narrow-band FM with a lower power rating. The UV-5G provides more selectable channels than FRS radios, more CTCSS and DCS tone options to reduce unwanted signals.

UV-5G supports 3 colors display

"WHY I RECEIVED UV-5G INSTEAD OF UV-5X AS I ORDERED?"

Many customers used to be confused by UV-5X (GMRS version) and UV-5X (U/V version). So BAOFENG changes UV-5X to UV-5G and re-certified the FCC ID as 2AN62-UV5G. In essence, now UV-5X and UV-5G are both the latest upgraded version of the inventory, with the same hardware and software configuration.
