The BaoFeng UV-5R has a 2 meters FM receive problem. It does not receive 2 meter FM stations unless you are in a menu, changing frequency, pushing the call button to put it into the FM broadcast mode. A menu 40 reset does not fix the problem. Problem is in both VFO and MR mode, power-off-on does not help, changing the Frequency does not help.
When this happens the UV-5R is no useable for 2 meter FM receive operation.
UV-5R is a $19.99 lemon and I cannot recommended it until I find a fix to get the UV-5R working on 2 meters FM.
