warlord Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Once you figured it out I can setup a UV-5R with 8 channels in only a few minutes. In fact by the time @springs had downloaded chirp for Windows, then gave up on the driver, downloaded it for Linux, installed XMing and copied my config, I'd have programmed his radio already The only thing I'd like chirp for is to change channel and radio names.

Best is to get the free open source software Chirp ( http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/wiki/Home ), and an appropriate baofeng programming cable (like this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BAOFENG-UV-5R-BF-888S-Radio-USB-Programming-Cable-FREE-Program-Software-CD-/221798554834?hash=item33a4395cd2:g:PJwAAOSwFMZWrwUV ) Ignore the CD it comes with. Also read the chirp site about programming (especially Baofengs and cheap cables with Windows OS). What I've bought today, as indicated in my previous post 18 hours ago, sp00n said: Just collected a new baofang UV-5R and I have finally figured out how to program pmr frequencies and the correct sub channels Just remember that the UV-5R is too high in power to legally transmit on PMR446 channels. The lowest it goes is twice the allowed limit and it has a detachable antenna (also not allowed for PMR446 handsets). By default it transmits at 10x the allowed power (5W instead of 500mW) so be sure to - at a minimum - turn it down to low power (1W). Not that you'd ever get caught, but ya know if enough people start doing it... Also bear in mind that if your site has a license that you can transmit on their business/site frequencies with permission. You can then safely utilise higher power bands too. If you're in a team then a license is only £75 for 5 years between all of you, so that's worth considering as well. rsciw 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paltala Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Just something simple this time, a 'Minidiva 551', basically a knock-off Eotech. £30 or so from Amazon and it feels nice and weighty, nice clear sight. But it uses some f*cking bizarre tiny button cells. LR44 cells Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paltala Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 So following this thread, I had the pleasure of dealing with OceanQI and bought his Krytac MKII CRB. So here it is! Albiscuit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MILITATED Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Thought it was about time that I finish off my RATech/GHK M4. The overall build has cost me a lot of money but these are the finishing pieces (I hope). Yes, I am a (big) fan of Magpul. Airsoft_Mr B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LewisUK Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Just bought: A Gold TRMR (Shiny so I don't lose it in the dark areas of the site) 100 .209 Primers Condor OPS Chest Rig Black Condor MCR Bib Integration Kit Black Condor Drop Leg Dump Pouch (Black) Flyye 40MM Grenade Shell Pouch Molle Black - For the TRMR (Hopefully it fits.) Condor Double M4 Kangaroo Mag Pouch Black (2x) MFH Admin Pouche Molle Black Needed a new vest rig after my crossdraw vest has run its course, no longer suits my kit (no pistol pouches or grenade pouches!) and have been tempted to get a grenade for a while. Im getting more and more tempted to pre-purchase a Krytac Vector too... djben9, Airsoft_Mr B and Albiscuit 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do condor do a drop down pouch yet? Haha I got it to provide extra protection and somewhere to stick an admin pouch/anything else i'll get later on, as i only wear a UBACS combat shirt, so a little bit of protection never hurts (especially in CQB when there is no "bang" rule) From looking at a couple sites i don't think so. Had to change the 40mm pouch for a flashbang pouch (No stock.) djben9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paltala Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 So to follow on from my previous post in which I bought my Krytac CRB, I bought a new attachment for it and some new batteries. Say hello to my new ASG Tracer Unit! Of course, a tracer unit would be pointless without some tracer ammo! So I went for some G&G Red Tracers. Most use green, I wanna use red! Also, stocking up on some normal .2's because I'm damn near out. djben9 and Albiscuit 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators djben9 Posted June 8, 2017 Moderators Share Posted June 8, 2017 lets hope you get to use them , ive still got approx 1500 green ASG tracers left as very rairly get to a dark site!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
