Hello Smart Radio Peeps,
I bought Baofeng UV5R/UV82 Dual Band FM Transceiver and I am WAY out of my league.
I was hoping to be able to listen to my local (Gresham) police scanner, listen to weather, and listen to repeaters. NO TRANSMITTING for me.
Someday if I ever feel like I can get the hang of this I will take the test and get licensed but for now I feel so stupid about this stuff that I wish I could return the stupid things. Oy. I bought them last year and felt so dumb i haven't tried again till now to figure it out.
I need help finding frequencies. I looked some up and can't seem to hear anything. I can listen to them online but why can't I get them to play on my radio? Help me please or offer to buy these things. ;-)
