I recently started getting into the Two Way Radio hobby

And yesterday I just got the radio which has been the centre of much debate in some countries. Not so much here in South Africa though lol.

For those who are familiar, I got the Boafeng UV5R.

I also have 2 other models (BF-888s). So far my son and I have been able to get a range of 2km's in a heavily populated residential area with lots of obstructions, which was impressive. We still need to test the range difference with the UV5R though.
