Chiming in late here but you bought a UHF/VHF radio which can do a lot but think of it more as a local walkie-talkie (greatly simplified). It sounds like you are not licensed or trained to transmit so if you want a more capable receiver the countycomm gp-7 is a great inexpensive option.Recently bought a Baofeng UV-5R on amazon, only $22 and it actually appears to be a well made device. I was able to tune in to NOAA weather radio (No big deal, 162.400 megahertz) but find it lacking with many of the frequencies found in radioreference.com. Only periodically get a set of digital beeps on the stations using the "Scan" channels feature. Also does receive FM, but who really cares. Are all police and fire digital or encrypted now? Are there other HAM radio users here? Are their any frequencies worth tuning in to? Did I just blow $22? Should I get a HAM License?
thanks. Ill check it out
Spoken for by @bigfug.I have a baofeng with charger that one you guys can have if you want to check out to see if you are interested in Ham and or GMRS . Both GMRS and local VHF/UHF channels programmed. Shoot me a PM if interested.
