    Download CHIRP software for PC and get a programming cable. You can then program in the GMRS frequencies. It's just that easy. Check out Fleetwood digital in Surrey for cable.

    you can buy them in a package with the software and cable all in box. Check on amazon or e-bay.
    These are easy to instal and to put in frequencies

    I have icoms and Baofengs and the Icoms are better. But the Baofengs are pretty good but IC70 Icom is better. The Baofeng is far from disappointing given the fact I can buy three or four to 1.

    My experience with Baofeng was good.

    If you're just going to put in the RR channels, no need for a cable, it's easy to do manually, just look it up on youtube.

    Where the best place to get them? Are they significantly better than the ‘talk about’?

    I buy direct from baofengtech.com and just have them shipped, we use the UV82HP's they are pretty decent for range even in the bush, the come with in ear sets as well which is pretty nice for keeping things quiet, we have a total of 6 in use now
