Alabama thread!

Yeah, I edited my comment. I cancelled my original order on Amazon when I realized I could get the 8 watt version for a few more bucks.

 

You got a link for the 8watt one? Sounds like the better deal. If you remember the discount code, that would save me some scrolling too

Edit: Nm, google says it's PRONTO15

 

Discount code is pronto15. Ebay is blocked on my computer.... just search baofeng f8hp. Itll be for 36 bucks. Make sure its shipping from new jersey, not china.

 

Got it, thanks!

 

How many of you guys are doing XM? Thinking about canceling mine. Was worth it when I was driving 2 hours daily but, now I rarely use it.

 

Had it for the trial period after I bought my truck. Never felt like I was missing out once it went away. I can get better music streaming from my phone anyway.

 

OK so before I purchase. This is the one, from Jersey Correct? UV5RTP

Yep. That's what I bought.

 

Cool thanks!

 

I feel like this just became a HAM radio club. Lol.

 

+1 what jerney said. I opted for Pandora on my phone. Phone solutions are way more versatile, and you don't have to listen to some DJ talk. Also it doesn't go out every time you go under a bridge

 

Order placed! Expected delivery by Wednesday the 15th!

 

Yeah, sorry. Iirc, I started it because I didn't want to bother with a whole CB system.
I'm impressed by how quickly everyone jumped in lol.

All good. I think HAM radios are far more versatile anyway. More likely to be able to use it if you're out on your own and need assistance. CB, not so much.

 

Looks like that one comes from china. A couple posts up is the one that comes from within USA.

 

Here's the 8w one.

Scratch that that was from China. Here's one from Nevada.

Hahahahaha. No need to apologize. This is the 'bama thread and radios are a relevant conversation. Monday's topic was shit. Literally.
