Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

❓ What is the difference between UV-5R and UV-5RH?

The UV-5RH is the upgraded "Pro" version. It features 10W power (vs 5W), a larger 2500mAh battery (vs 1800mAh), a bigger 1.77" screen, and receive capability for AM Airband.

❓ What is the real-world range?

With 10W of power, the UV-5RH offers extended range. In open environments (hilltops, sea), you can expect 10km+. In dense urban areas, the 10W power penetrates buildings better than standard radios, typically offering 2-5km range.

❓ Do I need a licence?

Yes and No. You do not need a licence to listen (receive). However, to transmit on Amateur bands, you need a valid UK Amateur Radio Licence. Using this on PMR446 frequencies is not permitted.

>> Read our Guide: How to Get a UK Ham Radio Licence.

❓ Are my old UV-5R accessories compatible?

Most audio accessories (Earpieces, Speaker Mics) using the K1 (2-Pin) connector WILL work. However, due to the larger battery size, old UV-5R batteries and cases are NOT compatible.

❓ How do I program this radio?

Wireless Bluetooth Programming: To program wirelessly via your phone, you can buy the Baofeng BT-A1D Wireless Bluetooth Adapter separately. This connects to the UV-5RH and works with the official OLA App.

>> Read Guide: How to Program with Bluetooth & OLA App


PC Programming: You can also use CHIRP or Baofeng CPS Software on PC using a standard Programming Cable.

⚠️ UK LEGAL NOTICE: LICENCE REQUIRED

IMPORTANT: This equipment is NOT a PMR446 (Licence-Free) radio.

Transmitting on this radio requires a valid UK Amateur Radio (Ham) Licence or Ofcom Business Radio Licence. Transmission without a valid licence is illegal in the UK. Reception (listening) is permitted without a licence.

    Ordered my first Boafeng UV 5RH and got it delivered yesterday. Very happy with the product. Solid looking rock. It took longer than expected but worth a wait. And the customer service team was brilliant, they kept me in the loop. Thanks guys!

    Good so far

    Posted by Mark on 19th Feb 2025

    I wish it was easier to connect the belt clip. The screws are dark and tiny, so very difficult to handle and have no indication of size anywhere in the paperwork, which means you’re stuck if you drop one and can’t find it. They seem longer than from other Baofeng radios & I’m wondering if I’ll have to get another radio. VERY IRRITATING.

    I’ve been in the HAM area for a while. I bought a UV-5RH to replace my UV-5R and I have to say it’s a noticeable improvement. Well done Baofeng!
