These have recently come back on the market. Amazing value for money and performance. When compared to a couple of Motorola T6222 radios the difference is the audio quality. These have really clean audio with a little background hiss whilst the Motorolas have obvious speech processing and remove a lot of the back ground noise.
Cracking radio's we use a pipe antannae on ours greatly improves the range.we disconnected the torch and put small holes in the top of belt clip to fit a carrying strap on them it's all good great review of a real bargain radio.
Been looking at these radios for some time, only downside is - only legal to use license free on low power. Either way, might pick up a set to try out on our local Southern & South East coast PMR net on Mondays :) cheers Jez, 73's mate.
I have about fang uv5r and I really like it and I was thinking about ordering more but I have to Binatone mr200 and as you said they're really really good especially if you're like caving or part holding that kind of thing I think they can save your life if

for under £16 quid its worth trying and see what results you get I'm certainly pleased with them for the price
How do yoh out them on high power?
@@Diabolical_Minds you can't. Their now locked to 0.5w according to Floureon themselves.
I wonder if there is any way of getting around that
Another great video by J .. thanks mate.
Dafydd R thanks pal and thanks for watching

Great video jazz really enjoyed it might have to look into two of them radios cheers mate
Yea good radios I need to get up a high hill and do some tests with them
Distance?
I disconnected my lamp it wasn't very good anyway.
Yea it always seems to come on in my pocket or bag was it easy to disconnect?
@@2j4ez Yeah ok have to be careful when you open it for the speaker wires they are really thin from the battery compartment.
did you try and charge it with the cable and what batteries you reccamend?
Riz's Channel the baofeng radio (black one ) has to be programmed using a cable. I was just using standard aa batteries in the floureon radio
Sorry I'm using audio to do my text
Does the link take anyone else to a foot stool?
Cohen Walsh: Yes....a storage chest.
Illegal though.
Not sure I no we got a few new channels on 446mhz I’ll have to look up on it
No totaly legal
@@2j4ez : If it does more than 0.5 Watts its illegal.
@@paganphil100 Mine are "illegal" !!! you can still buy them .But dont think you get a LOT more range .You dont get much
@@paganphil100 They dont do more than 0.5w ERP, the helical is at least minus 6db
