Here is the thing with the $35.00 Baofeng... you can afford to lose out on this one! They work great for a long time if you take care of it and when they don't you can still use it to chock your tire during trail repairs. Win Win!

I suspect the Midland is a much superior quality radio but is restricted to just GMRS as CB is to CB. If everyone in your wheeling group is running CB, you buy a CB. If its GMRS, you buy GMRS. These Baofengs do ham (VHF and UHF), business (VHF and UHF), weather, train, marine, MURS, race radios, FRS, GMRS, FM radio stations, some military stuff, etc.

If you are serious you could buy a Yaesu FT-60r and I'll modify it to do everything the Baofeng does, but better. I'll program it too. All for free. I'll even give you the programming file and you can buy your own software and cable and change it whenever you want.

Also, I'll have my analyzer with me and willing to check out anyone's antenna system and tune it if possible. This includes CB, ham, GMRS, and race radios.

If you have questions, and to save thread space on boring and gay radio talk, just message me or text to 562-665-6286.

Definitely interested in this. I placed an order for the Baofeng last night. Most, if not all all of CO folks use CBs. The Baofeng was cheap enough that it would still be fun to use after Moab to just listen to

+1 - I have one inbound from mainland China as well.

Mine was shipped from Nevada🤪

I love that both of yours were shipped locally even though I ordered between the two of you. I must not get logistics 🤷‍♂️.

mine must be bugged since clearly I’m important.

I don't recommend this cable or software at all. Sure you can get it to work but its clumsy.

I recommend RT Systems. You get what you pay for.
