HRN 269: Bull in a China Shop

/

We don't do unboxings and reviews, but this time we did both. Gary wanted to learn more about the 'cheap Chinese radios' everybody loves, so he picked up a BaoFeng UV-5x3 tri-band HT (144-220-440), which he unboxed, programmed and compared to the Kenwood TH-F6A tri-band HT. The Kenwood beat the BaoFeng by a mile in everything but price. For about $80, he found the BaoFeng 'good enough'.
