The BaoFeng UV-5R is a hand-held radio that has been marketed illegally in the United States[1]. It has been used in a number of projects involving radios.[2][3] It is described as a popular inexpensive model. [1]

Features[edit]

It is designed to transmit on the 2 meter band between 144 and 148 MHz and on the 70cm band between 430 and 450 MHz. Features include CTCSS and duplex operation for use with local repeaters, dual watch and dual reception, an LED flashlight, voice prompts in either English or Chinese and programmable LED lighting for the LCD display.

Illegal marketing and distribution in the United States[edit]

The FCC cited the Houston, Texas based importer Amcrest Industries which owns and operates Baofengradio US for illegally marketing UV-5R, "capable of operating outside the scope of its equipment authorization,” the FCC Citation said, which is outside of its Part 90 authorization granted. The FCC asserts Amcrest marketed "UV-5R-series FM hand-held radios capable of transmitting on “restricted frequencies." "Marketing a device that is "capable of operating outside the scope of its equipment authorization,” is not allowed.[1]
