Hi all, new to this forum not much posting done yet.
Just wanted your thoughts with regards to the baofeng GT3MK2 vs the UV5 models. I can see the UV5 is very popular with many of you and wandered why so when the price difference is only £4 or so depending where you buy. I have the GT3-MK2 and have to say its a fantastic bit of kit. I am very impressed with its range and battery life, I have on order a whip 15" antena to further increase its capabilities. I live in area 6 so I appreciate this is ideal terrain for comms of this type due to the flat lowlands. What are the differences? I am considering purchasing an after market 3800mah battery to boost its life, although this will increase its size as the battery is bigger im happy to make that sacrifice as it will still fit in the viper pouch I have. Thanks in advance for any replys,
