Some buddies use the Baofeng UV-5RE & the UV-5RE Plus radio below. I'm thinking of getting a radio instead of using theirs all the time. Is this a good one to get or is there a better one (range, etc.)? These run about $35 but I don't mind spending up to $75 on one if I can get better range out of it.
