As former arty, saying "repeat" over the radio is one my my biggest pet peeves. I yell at people when they do it.

I have my general license... I’m telling everyone, programming a baofeng is actually quicker and easier than a lot of the other super expensive radios like Yaesu and Kenwood!!! I usually recommend a baofeng to everyone for their first radio. Like you said, start cheap, outgrow the radio and then move into expensive ones.

One thing to remember, put your radio where you can reach it so you can change channels if your comms are compromised, and put the PTT button where you can push it with your off hand, not the hand that holds the gun. I am right hand dominate, so all of my comms stuff tends to be towards my left hand. Another way to help protect your comms for short distances, and not be triangulated, is to use a mesh network device. I am using GoTenna because there are many out there to help bounce a signal, the app is already on the app stores, and it uses end-to-end encryption to send text messages. Mesh dont use any infrastructure to operate, just think of them as a cheap radio with limited range (think Baofeng) that sends texts. Great video.

@ThinLineDefenseCo

That depends on the unit. They could be using digital truncated which would require specific radios and specific coding. MOST likely you'd need another radio and as long as you can hook it into a PTT, you should be fine. Some units may use a PRC152 though and you could run on their frequency but it would still likely required coding for specific settings. Ultimately the answer it....it depends. I'd plan on needing an different radio when going from civilian to mil units. -Walsh

@@ThinLineDefenseCo I’ll keep you in the loop. It seems a little ridiculous how expensive PTTs can be, given they’re just relocating a function the radio already has. Refresh my memory, what’s civtak? It’s making a dull clunking that’s not exactly a ringing bell, in my head.

Great video! Very informative for nubies! Personally I like the Bowman PRR setup. Frequency hopping in the 2.4 GHz ISSM band. Squad spec. Short range up to 900 meters LOS. It will also screwup Bluetooth and WiFi comms of others who go for some of the gear based on those frequencies. Radio utilizes a single earpiece headphone style system with a condenser microphone. Held to ones head with a strap system that can be used under almost helmet system. PTT is on the side of the radio or there is a wireless PTT one can strap to their rifle or any other place they desire. Batteries. A weak point of many radios. Most Ham or medium to high tier radios use rechargeable batteries. One must keep several charged batteries on hand for a mission. This equals extra weight. Which can also result in the loss of several mags of ammo. The PRR uses plain old AA alkaline batteries. When your done chuck em'. (Not recommended, bad for environment) but one can keep a whole stack of batteries that weigh less than a rechargeable pack. Having lucked out and bought cut offs from non working headsets I have been able to make my own adapters to any headset that I own. As for long range comms, ham radios will do and unless this is a SHTF scenario where society has broken down DO NOT USE ham gear on FRS, MURS, or commercial frequencies. I prefer more current Motorola equipment with encryption for more serious and long range work. Yeah one needs deep pockets and must know what they are doing to use these toys but a bit more practical than using some of the old government PRCs (aka just plain ole Pricks). Yeah they are cool, cost a lot more than they are worth and a pain to repair since parts are almost non existent to civilians or are no longer made. One thing to remember is to use the KISS philosophy when setting up your gear. Semper Fi and 73

Great video! It took trying 5 different PTT to find the correct one that worked with my Midland GXT and Peltor Comm 3. And and over a year of mailing the PTT back and forth! But Tony at Comm Gear Supply in California was dedicated to find the correct PTT.

This channel has been so helpful when it comes to setting up my first rig

I can't believe I haven't seen this sooner great video. I would argue for non radio people to get a remote speaker mic with the 3.5mm connector and either a tube earpiece or a AUX cord to the ear pro. Less wires to keep track of on the kit.

Good looking out! Was going down the gear hole again this was very helpful. Especially with the earpro cable adapters. Saved my ass on dropping a big chunk of change on new ear pro for coms when my pt100's work great. Thanks for the info!

Idk if I missed you saying this but, with the Walker Razors, if you run an audio output line into the headphones, you lose the Walker's microphone audio feed. Unless you're doing some sneaky squirrel stuff, which you probably aren't, it makes more sense to have a speaker mic when using budget electronic hearing protection. Speaker mics also have the distinct advantage of being used without a headset at all, or with a full cut helmet that cannot accommodate even the very slim Walker Razors.

Maybe I missed it since I was listening while driving to work but there's a big advantage to having a throat mic over boom and other mics. You can talk at lower volumes and they don't pick up near as much background noise. They do take a bit of getting used to and at least the one I have only works on the b channel of the baufeng so that's something to be aware of. That's on the 82hp though so it may work differently on a 5r. It's also worth noting that any 5r and likely other models made in the last year no longer transmit on frs, gmrs or murs channels. They changed that to better comply with the fcc rules. So they aren't good group radios for just doing outdoor stuff like they used to be if you use those channels.

While I and most of the people I larp with have moved on from Baofeng’s, I make sure to keep my Microsoft Surface in my pack along with all programming cables I may need for the exact reason that programming on the fly in the field sucks, especially once you’ve moved on to DMR radio’s and portable repeaters.

well see...the radios are actually the same. You're asking the wrong question. What frequency would be best for mountain use is what you want to know. All the radios use the same basic power levels and wavelength so you don't see a ton of variation. Antenna does make a lot of variation as radio works by line of sight...so the higher, the better. A tall antenna and a long wavelength frequency will travel the longest and would be best suited for outdoor use. As gee wiz, short wavelengths permeate structures better but travel shorter distances so shorter would be better for urban use. So...which radio. Get a baofeng. You may get picked on but learn it...outgrow it...and pass it on. It's easy to get everyone into it when it only costs 20 bucks. Then if you all upgrade...sweet!

It's all in your antenna. Look at Jetstream JTB-2B. That's a 10ft tall 6dbi base station antenna for $85. Hang it in a tree with Paracord at 40-80ft. Use KMR400 coax cable to your radio. (KMR400 is knockoff LMR400 for much less but is great quality). +3dbi antenna = 2x power +6dbi = 2x range Height of antenna means 10x more than transmit power. Learn about hanging antennas from trees with air cannon launchers. Baofengs can easily reach 15-20 miles with a setup like this one ridge lines. If that fails get a 50w mobile radio, stuff it in an ammo can with a simplex repeater and Lifepo4 battery.

@@jeremiahmaniscalco9308 I'd check your radio cord ends. Sounds like it may not be tight.

Personally, I use an antenna relocation and put my radio low on the right side.

Do you have a link to a setup guide for the Baofeng?

I used a Chirp guide. That program makes it TONS easier. Need a programming cable though. Don't set it up on the radio it self. That would be hell. -Walsh

its not hard to program, its tedious to program all the channels, but putting a frequency ,shift and so on is easy

Very true! tedious but not hard. It's just a pain when you want to add in like 80 channels and all all use a tx and rx offset. But yes, not hard...tedious is a better way to explain it

That Microbat Shirt though .
