Baofeng Tech: BTECH UV-5001

And now some more details on the dual band 50W mobile Baofeng Tech UV-5001 ($149.89).




The Baofeng Tech website mentions a few key features that differentiate it from the other similar radios:
"Synchronize Display Mode
Scrambler/Inversion, DTMF, 5Tone, 2Tone, CTCSS, and DCS Calling Modes (Remote Kill/Stun Supported)
VFO Lockout
Menus, Programming, and Reset Lockout
Auto Power Off Function
Dual Watch Delay Time: Allows the receiver to stay on the secondary channel longer after incoming transmission - customize the delay up to 50 seconds; This avoids manually channel switching when you are engaged with simultaneous contacts on two frequencies"
(For those of you following along, this will look just like the features of the UV-2501 from the previous post.)

And now to the specs...

  1. Can the remote stun/kill/revive be activated by any radio outside of the group using the radios? Or, is it activated by a Master radio?
