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.
Cross Compatible
Compatible with all accessories of UV-5R ham radio series, such as 3800mAh battery. Easy to find backup parts on market or from your previous radios.
NOAA Weather Scanning
UV-5G automatically scans 11 NOAA weather channels. On call 24/7 with updated severe weather reports so you're always up to date on the latest weather conditions.
"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.
