Hi Everyone;

  1. Did you get one of the Radios at the FireWise meeting?
    Please let me know (and how many).

  2. Also for those that bought their own and had me program them.

***I forgot to make notes of who all has radios, 'doh

I need a list so we can plan communication tests.
Also if I need to add/change channel programming.

We sold over 25 UV-82C MURS radios at our event! That’s going to really improve our Micro Community communication and I’m looking forward to our next test date: Saturday, May 21st, from 9:00-9:30 AM.

Susan is ordering all of the MURS radios for the people who placed orders at the event. I’ll email you after I’ve programmed them to let you know when and where to pick them up.

Thanks,
Keith keithtrinity@gmail.com

I have three radios: 1) BTECH MURS-v1, 2) Baofeng UV82-C, and 3) Yaesu FT60-R. I purchased these myself and programmed them. I’m also a ham, with (new) callsign KC6EJS.

Hi Keith,

I just picked up the Baofeng radio, and also have a Dakota Alert. Thank you for programming my Baofeng!

I have two MURS radios: Dakota - desk version and handheld. I don’t know what you mean by programming. I have it on the right channel,4, and I can hear and speak.

You’re OK then, Marianna. The Dakotas don’t need programming. The newly recommended BaoFeng radios, that can pick up transmissions from a variety of local agencies (fire, police, PG&E, etc, even Animal Control) do need to be programmed before using them.

Are you still programming these for us/. I am about to purchase one, and just want to know if I can still have it sent to you.

Julie, either Keith Trinity (keithtrinity@gmail.com) or Eric Swenson (eric@swenson.org) can program your radio. Are you buying the Baofeng UV82-C? AFAIK, this is the currently advocated model. Keith or Eric, correct me if I’m wrong.

#14

I am about to order that radio. Just waiting to know if I get it sent to me. Or someone else.

#15

Julie, you might want to have the radio delivered to Eric Swenson (he’s closer to you than Keith). Email him to ask for his shipping address.

Keith, did I miss something? What are the advantages of the Radioddity? Does it lend itself better to on-the-road use during an evacuation?

#18

It is very similar radio. It is new. It has the legal output power. It is cheaper.

Hi Julie; I received the radio and it is all programmed up.
Do you want to pick it up here?
Or where are you I might be able to drop it off on my way to work…
