The only Baofeng with any cert is the UV82C, which is certified for use in Part 90 land mobile. Business itinerant is locally coordinated and you are issued specific freq's to use.

I proved this link <http://wireless.fcc.gov/services/index.htm?job=licensing_3&id=industrial_business>to the FCC site earlier, but my email may get eaten by spam since this list breaks dmarc.
