Re: FCC after your BaoFeng!
They can have my Baofeng when they pry it from my cold dead hands, and I only ever use it in the FRS bands.
Re: FCC after your BaoFeng!
I got one of those as a Christmas gift. I can confirm that I AM too stupid to use it. I have no fucking idea how it works.
Maybe what I got just looks like the one in the pic ....whatever I still can't use it

If you're throwing it anywhere throw it my way.
Bug44 is right, Chirp is your friend. You need it to program it properly.

Since I have no idea what the hell chirp is, I will consider your offer ;) Seriously I'll watch the video and maybe do a little research, and if it doesn't interest me I will consider finding it a new home

It's for programming it: https://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Home
You should have gotten a USB programming cable with it, if not, you need order one, of if you like I'm sure one of us here with one would program it for you.

It may be a great prepper device because it came from my Uncle-in-law who is a prepper. Give me a week or 2 and if I conclude I can live without it I'll pm you
