## Description

The Most Powerful Boeing UV-82: Boeing UV-82HP (High Power). Versatile Radio for Amateur and Use.

Review: Great Radio, Great value, fully programmable - I bought two BaoFeng UV-82HP radios for some outdoor adventures over the holidays. The radios came with two chargers, two headsets, and two sets of very detailed instructions written in actual English by a native speaker! Everything worked as advertised. I also ordered an adapter cable so I could hook my radios up to my laptop and program then with CHIRP software. The first time I hooked them up, I had to do some online searching for troubleshooting as the radio woudn't connect to chirp. I installed a couple drivers online, but I don't think this step was necessary, because it didn't resolve the issue. I turned off the radio, unpluged the radio from the cable, plugged it back in, powered it back on, restarted the CHIRP software, and IT SUDDENLY CONNECTED! My friend bought a TYT radio and he couldn't use chirp. His radio is great functionally, but he was pretty envious at how I could instantly reprogram both my radios via CHIRP in seconds, and to do the same would take him literally like an hour. After initial setup, we took the radios out for a field test. My friend was on his TYT handset, and had my second UV-82HP as well to compare as I drove away from the house with my UV-82HP. He read me loud and clear in the city out to about 2.5 miles on my UV-82HP, but lost me after that. I was in a vehicle in the city and he was inside my house. With his TYT and a 15" whip antenna, he was able to communicate with my BF UV82-HP out to 3.5 miles in the city. We were reading loud and clear both ways until 3 miles, and could still communicate at 3.5, though the signal was broken. On the highway, my friend and I used the UV82-HP for about 2 days of intermittent transmitting before I exhausted the battery. I don't know the exact runtime in hours, but suffice it to say these batteries will last through a full day of constant use easily. All our transmissions were loud and clear from vehicle to vehicle, and I never want to do another roadtrip without my BaoFeng!. In the outdoors, we never reached a distance at which our signal became broken. On your average hiking trip, where you become separated at most by about a mile, you can easily communicate with these radios on medium, and usually low power! We rarely even used high power. I estimate the distance of the radio on high power outside of a vehicle in the forest if not separated by mountains is at least 3 miles, which is a LONG ways in the woods. For the price, the radios are an outstanding value. They are super easy to program and use, and function very well in the hands of a beginner like myself. These were my first ever radio, and it took no time at all to get them up and running, and even communicating with other radios using unique privacy tones at specific frequencies. I recommend these for you first radio. The price is equal to the super cheap box-store radios with 2W max power, but these easily outperform them. You can't go wrong with these radios.
Review: Good radio for visually impaired - This review is from the perspective of a totally blind person who is also a longtime ham. I sold all of my ham gear about 15 years ago, when I lost my eyesight. We recently moved to a new State and I thought that getting on the local repeaters might be a good way to meet some local hams and build some new friendships. I wanted a 2m portable radio that was at least partially accessible for me. Naturally, I sought out the offerings from the big three plus Alinco. I had previously owned portables from Yaesu, Kenwood and Alinco and they were all wonderful radios. The only currently available radio that I found with any accessibility built-in is the Kenwood THD-74 at over $600. That was well out of my $300 budget. I then began reading about the radios from China and learned that some have partial accessibility built-in. I did a lot of research and Baofeng was a very popular brand. After many hours of research, (too many hours for a $63 purchase) I settled on the UV-82HP. I have only had the unit for a week, so I cannot comment on how well the radio will hold up in the long run, but so far I am very impressed. This radio feels solid in the hand, not like a cheap toy from China. The volume control is solid and the buttons on the front and side, feel and work very well. While I have not yet transmitted with the unit (other than to key up the local repeater) the reception and audio quality are excellent. I have been listening in on the regional fire dispatch and it is loud and clear. I charged the unit on the day that I received it and have not charged it since, which is 6 days so far. Of course, if I was doing more transmitting, it would certainly require more charging. Speaking of charging, I did experience one problem and that was with the charging base that shipped with the radio. It was nearly impossible to insert the battery into the charger. It required excessive force to both insert and remove the battery. I contacted the seller, Baofeng Tech, and they sent me a new charging base and wall wart. The new base is much better and the radio easily slides in and out of the base. I was impressed with the level of service from BT and that is why I did not hesitate to give this product a five star review. There are resources on the Internet that provide info on using the UV5R as a blind person. I was able to apply much of that information, along with some excellent YouTube reviews, to get up to speed with the UV82HP very quickly. I did send a note to BT, asking them to consider two additional accessibility enhancements. The first would be to have the voice announce either A or B when switching between the two VFO displays. The second would be to program one of the buttons to speak the frequency or the individual letters of an assigned channel name. I do not believe that this would be very difficult to accomplish and would make a huge difference for a visually impaired user. As a screen reader user, I decided to purchase the RT Systems programming software and cable. I was able to quickly learn the software and program in my desired frequencies. It is necessary to use the software with the NVDA screen reader, as it does not work with Jaws—I tried it. Be aware that there are sections of the software that are not accessible using NVDA, but the sections most important to getting the radio programmed are accessible. I always treat my electronic items with care. I feel that this radio will last me a long time, if I treat it well. After my brief experience with this Baofeng product, I would not hesitate to purchase another of their higher-end radios.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which would you recommend more, this uv-82hp or the bf-f8hp?**
A: I own both. Offhand I prefer the feel of the UV-82HP.  Same with the keypad The BF-F8HP feels "overstuffed".

Advantage of the UV-82HP is the Dual PTT - Toggle up tor transmit on A and toggle down to transmit on B. Very nice for dual channel use

Disadvantage of the UV-82HP - MUST reboot to change between channel and VFO mode. I don't do that much - but it's annoying.

Menus pretty much the same.

I have become the "radio man" for our Boy Scout Camporees - and the BF-F8HP has a very nice bulk charger available. One base 6 or 8 radios. For a "field deployment" one power and one base sure beats 6 to 8 bases, cables, power warts. For that more than anything I've been procuring more BF-F8HP and that's what the staff is familiar with. I sure wish there was a bulk charger base for the UV-82HP.

**Q: Can you switch the backlight on and off manually? the automatic on/off drives me crazy(er).**
A: Using CHIRP, you can extend the backlight time out.

**Q: What would be the best transmitting antenna for these Baofeng radios? 150.00 mhz 400.000mhz I am talking about the best including pole mounts...**
A: The newest and best antenna with the best specs is the Authentic Genuine Nagoya NA-24J 16.2-Inch Ultra Whip VHF/UHF (144/430Mhz) Antenna SMA-Female for BTECH and BaoFeng Radios. Watch the YouTube videos about this antenna.

**Q: can alert tones from fire and ems be programed into this radio?**
A: There are still many areas that Public Safety Users are still VHF and UHF analog.  There IS NO REQUIREMENT to move to P-25 only narrow band.  
There are many benefits for P-25 and even more for P-25 phase 2 trunking.  But many many areas can not afford the cost of the systems.  A local county here can replace every radio and repeaters for about $80,000. They can upgrade to VHF P-25 for about $150,000. Or upgrade to a 7/800 P-25 phase 2 trunked system for about $3 million.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Powerful, in more then one way.
*by M***N on July 6, 2015*

Great radio, had it for around 20 minutes and put it right into use for a 4th of July Fireworks Standby using the IAP (Incident Action Plan) provided by the Mutual Aide Department. I've had the UV-82 for quite a while and I loved that radio as well, picking up the UV-82HP's body alone is like picking up the UV-82 with the battery and the antenna installed. It's much heavier, and feels like a premium radio. The UV-82 survived a motorcycle accident without issue, and I expect the UV-82HP to last longer and be able to take more of a punch based on it's weight. The radio includes an ear piece that works surprisingly well. During the fireworks show, I had no issues communicating with "Field Com" who was acting as dispatch. As far as the power goes, the reviews I've seen says 7.2 Watts on High Power, not the 8 Watts that printed on the box. Not much of a big deal as the radio is more powerful even at 7.2 watts then most portable radios out there. When it comes to software upgrades to CHIRP for this radio (you have to download the daily build to be able to program this radio - but that's considered ok as the daily build is very stable.) Skipping channels is a nice feature from the scan list, as I have NOAA's station on there and it's skippable on the scan list now. They also added a nuisance channel delete function, so if there is heavy traffic on a channel you can skip it as well. If you've never used BaoFeng radios before, you'll be pleasantly surprised on what the radio can do. So much so, that I'm seeing many, many first responders buy this radio over using their department radios because it's so accessible as far as programming it for each department they work with, or the departments in their area should they get mutual aided to it. Whereas Motorola requires CPS (Consumer Programming Software) license, this you can program thought some Free and Open Source Software and that's frankly a huge advantage to this radio. The programming cable it's self is also pretty inexpensive as well being not more then 15 dollars. There is one issue that I have with this otherwise great radio, and it's not just this radio but BaoFeng radios in general. They use some very cheap screws on the back of the radio to retain the clip. The screws are pre-installed in the radio and you have to remove them too add the clip. The issue is that these are very cheap screws and fall apart with a single use and some times less. One screws fell apart on me while I was installing the clip and is now completely stripped. Quite frustrating for what is otherwise a great radio. I'm going to have to remove the screw before I can install the clip.
