Thank you @Gaurav for the technical and fun drive - we touched so many types of dunes and terrains, it was a great learning experience. Special shoutout to @Benjamin for his patience and skills, I learnt a lot just by watching him and listening to his instructions on the radio, and to @Sviatoslav for the amazing pictures!

I've had the UV-5R and the static was horrendous even with squelch at lvl. 9. After that, I bought the UV-9R and it's significantly better. I don't believe it to be faulty hardware, just software. You'll be happy to have spent that extra 20AED when you are cruising in the desert, listening to the wind. With the UV-5R all that I was hearing was: "...bzzzzzzzzz...bzz...bzzzz...bzzzzzzzzzzzzz".

Hi @Gaurav, I'd like my fiance to RSVP. She has always been my co-pilot, it's now her turn to take the wheel 😀 A couple of questions: - Does she need to register on Carnity for this drive? - She would be using my Jeep, you already have all the details about the car on my profile. What other info would be needed on your side? - I'd like to join her on this day, would it be possible for me to passively be there? Thanks!

On the highest squelch level, your radio keeps picking up even the smallest of noises? Do you keep getting distracted by static noise during your drive? Then you need to adjust the internal squelch levels. This tutorial is valid for Baofeng models UV5R, UV82, F8HP, and 82HP. It is not valid for models UVB5/B6 or BF888S. You will need to: - purchase the Baofeng USB programming cable - download CHIRP The fix needs a bit of programming (that's why the USB cable), but it's easy enough and all the steps are explained in detail in this article: Adjusting the internal Squelch Levels - UV5R / UV82 / F8HP / 82HP series TL;DR The factory's internal squelch level settings have long been known to have little or no impact on the actual squelch range. The smallest noise burst would easily open the squelch regardless of setting 0 through 9. Most standard Baofeng factory squelch levels range from a low of 14-22 to a high of 40-48, both of which are low, and offer very little variation of squelch levels.
