Model overview based on user reviews
The Baofeng UV-82 is a portable analog walkie-talkie known for its excellent reception and transmission quality, making it a great choice for team travel. Users have successfully used it for road trips, rafting, and hunting, with a communication range of up to 20 km in open areas and 6-7 km in forested regions. It features manual tuning capabilities, allowing seamless operation with other brands like Motorola, and a channel lock function to prevent interference. The device includes a removable antenna, LCD display with backlight, and a flashlight. It is powered by a Li-Ion battery that lasts up to two days, with an option for a higher capacity battery. However, it lacks water protection, which could be a concern for some users. Despite this, the Baofeng UV-82 remains a popular choice due to its versatile features and reliable performance.

Model differences:
- UV-82 Urban - includes Nagoya NA-761 antenna
- UV-82 Forest - Nagoya NA-771 antenna included
- UV-82 Tactical - includes Agent ATA-89 antenna and two extra batteries
- UV-82 Tourism - includes Nagoya NA-771 antenna and two extra batteries




















Communication range is limited to line of sight. In the Tuvan steppes, we managed to maintain communication up to 20 km. In the taiga, it works without problems at 6-7 km, we didn't test further.
Manual tuning capabilities:
- we set up joint operation with channel Motorola without problems;
- channel lock function effectively shields from "spam" on the air.
The stock battery lasts for 2 days. There is an option to use a higher capacity battery, but this increases the size and weight. The stock battery is a more balanced solution.
