It is said on the internet that the Baofang or the newer name change  Pofung 
UV-82 VHF/UHF radio is programable ( self manual field entering of repeaters 
and simplex freq's) without the use of a PC and program cable. Anyone own this 
HT and can tell me if the menu for manual programming is really as good as say 
Yaesu or Icom HT's. In the past I frowned about China radios however now that 
Yaesu and other name brand HT's are made in China this radio is lookin good for 
replacing my older HT's. For about a bit more the price of a name brand HT 
battery a complete VHF / UHF radio can be had. I also noticed a not so 
mentioned UV-82X is sold that is a VHF / 220 mkz. This if the radios are self 
programmable could make 220 band affordable. Please give me your field report 
for manual programming of this radio.
