Both radios work excellent and are so portable along with my arrow antenna. For receive and having to adjust the receive frequency, I prefer the Wouxon only because it has a knob on top of the radio to tune the freq. I use the Baofeng to transmit and the Wouxon to receive. I prefer full duplex.\n\nGood luck,\n\nchad\nkg0mw\n> On Dec 29, 2016, at 4:04 PM, Bill Dillon <[email protected]> wrote:\n> \n> On Thu, Dec 29, 2016 at 12:07 PM, Devin L.
