Having just gotten a Baofeng I can tell you that the Transmit audio on the
Kenwood is much better, much brighter. The receiver may be a bit more
selective as well. But, given the price difference, these things might not
matter as much. I took the Baofeng with me on a trip to philly this weekend
and was delighted with how easy it was to program, especially the ability to
direct enter PL tones. No chart needed. Lou WA3MIX
