The Baofeng UV-5G Mini is basically a tiny UV-5R… but locked to GMRS frequencies. In this video I take a quick look at the radio, walk through the programming software, and show how easy it is to get it on the air.

The software interface is a little clunky, but the good news is you really can’t hurt anything by experimenting. If you’re new to GMRS radios, sometimes the best way to learn is to just start clicking buttons and see what happens.
We’ll also test it on a local GMRS repeater and see how this little radio performs.
If you’ve used the UV-5R before, this will feel very familiar… just with a GMRS twist.
