5 x Baofeng UV-5R: Full Five-Person Team Radio Coverage Across the UK
The 5-pack Baofeng UV-5R is the first quantity that truly covers a full working team — one radio per person, no sharing, no waiting. Whether your five-person group is heading out on a UK outdoor expedition, running a small event, managing a shift team across a site, or coordinating a volunteer operation — five radios means every team member has instant, direct communication at all times.
Five UV-5R units on a shared channel gives you a genuine team-wide communication network. With 128 programmable channels, 50 CTCSS tones, and 104 DCS codes, you can run your full team on one channel while separating smaller sub-groups onto dedicated private channels — all from the same radios, all configurable via PC programming in a single session.
The UV-5R 5-pack is popular with UK outdoor groups, hospitality and retail teams, education supervisors, and security operations where coverage, reliability, and cost-efficiency are all essential requirements. No monthly fees. No SIM cards. No network dependency. Just radio communication that works wherever your team needs to go.

Channel Strategy Tip: With 5 radios, assign Channel 1 as your all-team broadcast, then create sub-group channels for pairs or triplets within your team. For example — a team leader on Channel 1 (all-team) and Channel 2 (leader-to-pair A), while Pair B operates on Channel 3. CTCSS codes keep each group's traffic fully private. Programme all 5 radios in one PC session using CHIRP.
Programming Your 5-Radio Team Pack
PC Software Programming — Recommended for 5 Radios
For a 5-radio team pack, PC programming is strongly recommended. Use Baofeng CPS software or the free CHIRP software with an original Baofeng USB programming cable. Build your full channel plan on the first radio — all 128 channels, CTCSS/DCS privacy tones, power settings, and squelch. Save the file, then load the same configuration to each of the remaining 4 radios in under 2 minutes each. All 5 radios ready on identical settings in approximately 15–20 minutes. Read the step-by-step guide: How to Program Your Baofeng Radio Using CHIRP.
Manual Keypad Programming
Manual programming is available for individual field adjustments without a PC. Press [VFO/MR] to enter frequency mode, select the A side with [A/B], choose your band with [BAND], then enter your frequency using the numeric keypad. Adjust step size and set CTCSS/DCS codes if required. For a 5-radio team, PC programming is significantly faster and more consistent across all units.
Additional Features
Memory channels store specific frequency settings for instant field access. CTCSS/DCS tones filter incoming signals to keep each sub-group's communications private and interference-free. Switchable transmit power (5W High / 1W Low), reverse mode for frequency swapping, and Time-Out Timer (TOT) give full operational flexibility for any UK deployment scenario.

Who Uses the 5-Pack Baofeng UV-5R in the UK?
The UV-5R 5-pack is trusted by UK teams who need reliable full-coverage communication for every member of their group:
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Why choose 5 radios over 4 or 6?
A: Five radios covers an exact five-person team with one radio each — no sharing required. It's also the most efficient pack size for teams that include a coordinator plus two working pairs. The coordinator holds one radio, Pair A holds two, and Pair B holds two — giving you three independent communication channels from a single channel plan. For groups of exactly five people, this pack eliminates the need to buy more than you need.
Q: Can all 5 radios communicate simultaneously on one channel?
A: Yes — all 5 UV-5R units set to the same frequency and CTCSS/DCS code operate as a full team network. Any unit that transmits is heard by all other 4 units simultaneously. This is standard simplex operation used across UK security, events, construction, and outdoor groups. Only one unit transmits at a time while all others receive.
Q: How do I programme all 5 radios to the same channel plan?
A: Use an original Baofeng USB programming cable with the free CHIRP software. Programme your master radio, save the channel file, then load it to the remaining 4 radios — under 2 minutes each. All 5 radios ready in approximately 15–20 minutes. Full guide: How to Program Your Baofeng Radio Using CHIRP.
Q: Is the Baofeng UV-5R legal to use in the UK?
A: The UV-5R is legal to own and receive on without a licence. To transmit, you require a valid UK Amateur Radio (Ham) Licence or a UK Business Radio Licence issued by Ofcom. It is not authorised for PMR446 licence-free channels. See our guide: UK Ham Radio Licences — Your Complete Guide.
Q: Can I use 5 UV-5R radios on UK amateur repeaters?
A: Yes — with a valid UK Amateur Radio Licence, all 5 UV-5R units can access UK repeaters on the VHF (2m) and UHF (70cm) bands. Using a repeater significantly extends the communication range of your 5-radio team across the UK, particularly useful in hilly or dense urban terrain where direct radio-to-radio range is limited.
Q: VHF vs UHF — which band should I use for my 5-radio team?
A: For outdoor UK use — open countryside, hiking, construction sites — VHF (136–174MHz) typically delivers greater open-terrain range. For indoor or urban UK environments — hotels, shopping centres, warehouses — UHF (400–520MHz) provides better building penetration. The UV-5R supports both bands on all 5 units. Read more: VHF vs UHF — Which is Better?
Q: What earpiece connector do the UV-5R radios use?
A: All 5 UV-5R units use a Kenwood K-Type 2-pin connector, compatible with K-Type speaker mics, earpieces, and headsets. PTT earpieces are included with every radio in this 5-pack.
