The Baofeng UV-5R, a darling of amateur radio enthusiasts, has hit its lowest price ever on Amazon. As a bonus, these kits include a wireless Bluetooth programmer and a bunch of extras.

The Baofeng UV-5R has a reputation for being one of the most cost-effective and easy ways to get into amateur radio. It is versatile for many different radio applications, including emergency communication and walkie-talkie functionality. Additionally, the radio offers dual-band support for both VHF and UHF frequencies while being entirely programmable to suit the user's needs. The UV-5R also has a large and active community behind it, which will benefit new amateur radio users.

For Black Friday, Amazon offers the upgraded Baofeng UV-5R 8 Watt version Kit for $30.58. The kit includes a nifty Bluetooth wireless programmer that can be paired with either iOS or Android devices to program the radio easily on the go. The companion app also features social functions that users can use to communicate directly through their phones using the radio. Alternatively, users can access the programmer through an online portal on most web browsers for those who prefer to use their computer to program the radio. The kit also includes a host of accessories, including:

  • A TD-771 High Gain Antenna
  • Original Antenna
  • Earpiece
  • Belt Clip
  • USB Charging Cable
  • Desk Charger

Users looking for two radios are in luck. The same seller is offering a double pack of the Baofeng UV-5R 8 Watt with two extended batteries for $55.99. The kit includes all of the same accessories found in the single pack but also includes two 380 mAh batteries to extend the radios' runtime.
