VERSATILE RADIO FOR AMATEUR USE
The BaoFeng UV-5R III Ham Radio is legal for use on amateur frequencies. The UV-5R III Ham Radio is able to Transmit on Narrowband (12.5kHz) and Wideband (25kHz).

Dual Watch Receiver
The BaoFeng UV-5R III Ham Radio has one built-in receiver but can “watch” two channels (semi duplex). Monitor two different frequencies (even on different bands (VHF/UHF)) and the radio will monitor both frequencies giving priority to the first station to receive an incoming call.

FM Broadcast Station (Optional)
You can listen to the FM Broadcast radio, while still monitoring your radio frequencies in the background. Any incoming call will be given priority insuring you never miss an important call while listening to the radio. This is useful during disasters, when emergency broadcasts and information are put out through local radio stations.

Group Tones supported
The BaoFeng UV-5R III Ham Radio supports the most common Analog Tones. It supports CTCSS, DCS, and DTMF calling methods. Set-up your calling methods to call by group tones. Tone calling (private line) is required by most repeater applications and the UV-5R III Ham Radio supports the latest standards

The BaoFeng UV-5R III Ham Radio can even send DTMF tones. This allows for sending ANI (Caller ID) or remote commands that require DTMF tones

Customize Your Operation with channels, Programmable Buttons, and more!
You can program your BaoFeng UV-5R III Ham Radio exactly how you want it. There are 128 programmable memory channels. You can add or remove channels from scanning list using the free computer software. You can give channels alphanumeric names, using a computer.

How to manually program a simplex channel

• Step 1. Press [VFO/MR] and enter Frequency Mode.
• Step 2. Press [A/B] and choose the A Side (upper display).
  The A side must be used to program channels into the radio. Programming data entered on the B Side (lower display) will not be saved.
• Step 3. Press [BAND] for the frequency band.
  Toggle [BAND] to choose 136 MHz (VHF) or 470 MHz (UHF).
