@theretromom: Replying to @Gilbertsgarage RESTOCKED! The Baofeng UV5R two way ham radio is back at an incredible price after selling out yesterday! These are crucial during emergency situations such as hurricanes, natural disasters, communications shutdowns #TwoWayRadio #EmergencyPreparedness #HamRadio #BaofengUV5R #FLASHSALE #FallDealsForYou #FallDealsForYouDays #TreasureFinds #TikTokShopBlackFriday
Nobody tells you that these "radios" can't just be tuned to a station. You need to buy a separate programmer and use an app to program them.

How can it be any good at $10? 🙈🙈🙈 do you need to be registered to operate it? I do want one but that’s so inexpensive 👀

That radio would not work for a fire department to talk to 911 dispatch. Maybe they use them to play hide and seek in the station but that's it.

PPL better realize they better not transmit on this especially certain channels without an operators license

Bobby Ladd Larson :
The other problem is that most fire departments have gone over to the 700-800 mhz band which those radios will not tune to. Those are primarily used by ham operators me included.

Fire departments don’t use those + you need a Ham Radio Operator license (if found without a huge penalty)
