Hello,
I'm new here. I'm personally studying for the technician exam and have been listening on scanners for years.
In my real job, I'm an IT manager. We have a license and a handful of frequencies assigned to us. I didn't file this application, as this was long ago. But it is still active, and we now have a need for some wireless communications. Our license says: IG - Industrial/Business Pool, Conventional. We have several in the 464 range and 469 range.
So I just picked up four BaoFeng UV-82C which is the commercial version. Is this my best bet considering the license we have? I could have probably just used the UV-5R, but I know these are better because I can lockout the front. I picked put he programming cable for them also.
The place I'm using these is approx. 15 miles to the closest town, 5 miles to the closest neighbor. Cell phones don't work here.
Any help, advice, comments are very welcome!
