Radio did meet my expectations i have a yaesu ft60r that seams to be better built and better quality but the features like the fm radio and the built in flashlight and the ability to listen to the local fire department that used to work for and also the ability to talk to the grms frs radios make this a very handy radio do to me hiking and back packing a lot the down side to this radio is it is very hard to program manuel u have to use the chirp soft ware and u cant not scan other freq that are not already programmed in the preset like my yaesu ft60 but over all it is a decent radio

It is kind of hard to program manually

It is semieasy to program as long as you have chirp and the cable
