| Conclusions | Would I recommend this radio? No. Not because it is necessarily bad, because actually it is a pretty good radio. The problem is the Wouxun KG-UVD1P is just too much money for what you get. There are much better value propositions out there. Heck, some of the new super-cheap Baofeng radios have improved menu structures and GPS for less than half of what this radio costs. If you got one as a present or found a great deal on a used one, awesome! Use it and enjoy. You might not want to spend your hard-earned cash on it though. | I really wanted to love the Baofeng GT-3TP, then I really disliked it, but after using it I have come to respect its capabilities even if I am not a huge fan of the misleading ads. The case, buttons, and screen certainly did not live up to what it was billed as, but the actual electronics inside make it a very serviceable unit. If you want the Baofeng GT-3TP for a good radio that looks different and already has an outstanding antenna that won’t poke you in the side, this radio will absolutely not disappoint, particularly if like me, you are primarily on 2m. If, on the other hand, you want something that feels as sporty as the pictures suggest, you might want to look elsewhere (although in all honestly, I don’t know where). |
