I have 2 of the Baofengs. One is a dual band and the other is a 3 band
with the 220 mhz band on it. They work fine for what I use them for.
Mainly just to go to hamfest with several others and keep in touch or
carry it to my repeater to give it a final test before leaving.


Anything on 220 where you are? I sort of forget that even exists.



I live near the middle of NC. I have a low power 220 repeater on the
air. An old VHF Engineering repeater that is around 30 years old if not
older.

There are a few others around. They are not in HT range,but I can use
them with the transceiver in the house and a dipole about 20 feet off
the ground.
