In what mode are you receiving? AM? SSB?

Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina

Then gets 1M views 😮

Ridiculous to say you’re using your ht to talk to them. You’re using the internet linked to repeaters.

I'm really starting to wonder why I bothered getting my technician's license I find way better people to talk to on cb then I don around here local but yet they will cry ham radio is dying

Just order some license manuals. Was watching a RUclips channel that is saying you don't need to get a license cause the fcc doesn’t enforce there own rules.

at 9:46 you say the simplex freq for the 70cm band is 466.000 I think you meant 446.000

Great video! I had NO idea that some of the satellites were so small. Craziness. Have fun this weekend, I'll be participating in my first Field Day in Mid-Michigan. 73s

LOL, I got one off Amazon - no license req'd.

No it's not just $15 yes the test is $15 at most places And after you take your test and it gets summited 2-3 weeks later the FCC will send you a link to send them $35 for your license then a few days to a few weeks later you will get your call sign but no the license is not free I don't know maybe a few years ago it might have been free but it's not now

My guess is that you are talking to a local repeater or base station that is linked to a voip net. That only way you would be able to talk across the country is for you to be at about 10’000 feet.

yes and no, leaving a brake is not for me. Only want to have a conv. with my friend and not with strange breakins . Otherwise agree. 🤪 73, JR2FJI 🥰

Waiting for my antenna to come from CN.

You mentioned the high cost of repeaters. I make significant extra donations to one of the clubs in my metro area to be earmarked for repeater maintenance/improvements. You can drain down a club bank account quickly for unexpected repeater repairs or relocations. My time is spent on the HF bands so I don't even use the local VHF and UHF repeaters but I understand their importance.

"doesnt get too many views" meanwhile 1 million views

It's actually for those that can't carry on a coherent conversation.

Urban 200-300m, clear view 6-25km

Can you use this UV5R to listen to and talk on Marine VHF Channels if you have a license? Can you listen to NOAA channels? Thank you!

no sim require??

What brand walkie has 100 mile range and if I can buy on Amazon

Thank you for getting me into the hobby This video randomly popped up in my recommended

It can also be used to track UFO frequencies if you use aluminum foil. lol

He didn't show us how to use echolink?' I 'm still trying to figure it out. How about the specifics of how to access a repeater through echo on the other side of the country.

WHAT'S GOOD OUT THERE WITH OUT A SIM CARD .,... ANYONE...... TIA.

Is there a way I can get long distance of 50 miles to reach a repeater? Any available antanae or yogis I can do?

"Q" codes: QRM = man made noise. QRN = natural noise. 73 = end of work. QRX = wait. CUL = See You Later. Ron W4BIN

The number one rule is: "Receive before transmitting." (any time any band) Ron W4BIN

me Chamblee Dunwoody, voice is so clear .you just from Roswell ..little Baofeng..hey you cheating over fibre optic telecommunication. So all echo link repeaters broad cast hmm.

10:27 Hello! That would be me.

Amateur radio is like having the phone number of every dad’s friend no one wants to talk to

#1 should be to buy extra batteries. The are inexpensive and greatly improve the duration of time you can use the radio. In a disaster, it may be overcast so solar is out. Wall power may be unavailable. If you have multiple batteries, you can go several days without charging. Good video but for me, #1 is extra batteries.

I enjoyed the video and it gave me food for thought.

At 2:47 you said that you need a license to use a Baofang radio...not true. You do, however, need a license to transmit on a Baofang radio if you are on frequencies that require a license.

Sounds pretty decent, especially for over 2000 miles away

Repeater book is one good source, so is your local ham club as they have a list of frequencies.

Fire and rescue are still analog. It’s to make sure that they are safe to communicate with other fire and rescue agencies.

I have one and I use it all the time. I’m licensed both for gmrs and ham.

So the provided antenna maxes out the capable 8w of the unit? Or do you have a different antenna?

NEVER GET A LICENSE. Fuck that bullshit.. slaves..SMFH

So where do you enter your license in the radio? Or is it actually not required for the radio to function, just the gov trying to get their cheddar?

Hi !! Greetings from Argentina !! How can I send and receive data over_the_air with two arduino and two Baofeng BF999S ? Thanks !!!!!!

Hi !! Greetings from Argentina !!! How can I use two arduinos and two baofeng BF-999 instead of smartphones to send data over-the-air ?? Thanks !!

You didn’t explain how to connect to other repeaters. I googled it and there explanation was incorrect I watched other videos and they didn’t explain it either I ask other ham operators they didn’t know what I was talking about. Now this is as far as I’ve got you need to reach a Echo link repeater find the node of the repeater you want to reach key the mike and type in the node number it will say your connected to disconnect key mike and push star it will say disconnected but I have yet to talk to anyone doing this so I don’t know if this is right.

Everyone enjoys a BBL

Thanks for a very helpful video. I've been a ham since 1978 but haven't been active for about 20 years and would like to become active again. Your video about repeater usage has been very helpful to me.

great video i pass my LICENSE !! thank you Sir you are a good and great mentor to me❤❤❤ by the way sir what kind of atenna are you using thats a long wip antenna but idont know where to buy and look can you tell me were can i buy that that you Sir K4BBL

I have one for 5 years now and use it every day, and i have not seen the fbi at my door as yet, so bullshit

is that an RH771 antenna?

FYI the fcc won't do jack if you use the uv5r on gmrs frequencies so yes you can use it are you supposed to no but they wont do anything about it
