Baofeng UV-82HP Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have ordered all of my Baofengs thru Amazon.com or directly thru Baofeng Tech. I read somewhere that Baofeng Tech is the only one that guarantees a 7 watt radio. Others claim 7 watt radios, but send 5 watt radios. I also have had a defective 82HP and Amazon.com was very prompt in shipping a replacement. Returning the old one was prepaid and all I had to do is print shipping label, pack and send. I have not yet had to use Baofeng Tech's 2 year warranty. You will ocassionally get a bad one but if you get a good one, it's good.

They're not a $600 Kenwood, but just the basics with good performance and a few extra features than the big 3 have. I'm staying with them.

Skip it Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
It may show 7 watts of output but it can't bring up the repeater my FT-60R can with easy on 5 watts using the same antenna(with different adapter of course).

Best Baofeng so far. Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
You may have read the reviews on the UV-82, This newest model does in fact produce 7-8 watts on my Diawa watt meter depending on frequency. I have owned most all Baofeng HT models, and I think this one is the best. I also own Yaesu, Icom Wouxun and other brands of HT's, and the UV-82HX is my daily driver. Only one complaint is the scan speed is not so good. For the money,BIG BANG for the Buck.
