Double PTT button: top button for channel A transmission, bottom button for communication on channel St.
A walkie-talkie from the category of amateur and semi-professional portable devices, suitable for a wide range of tasks — from outdoor activities to security or taxi services work. This model stands out by combining a relatively low price with a set of features typical of more expensive devices. The Baofeng UV-82 radio operates on two bands (VHF and UHF), supports dual-channel reception, and allows quick switching between them with a dual PTT button — this is one of its key differences from many counterparts that use a single transmission button. This model is sold individually or in sets of two radios with headsets and chargers, making it a convenient option for paired or group work.

Model overview based on user reviews
The Baofeng UV-82 is a portable analog walkie-talkie known for its excellent reception and transmission quality, making it a great choice for team travel. Users have successfully used it for road trips, rafting, and hunting, with a communication range of up to 20 km in open areas and 6-7 km in forested regions. It features manual tuning capabilities, allowing seamless operation with other brands like Motorola, and a channel lock function to prevent interference. The device includes a removable antenna, LCD display with backlight, and a flashlight. It is powered by a Li-Ion battery that lasts up to two days, with an option for a higher capacity battery. However, it lacks water protection, which could be a concern for some users. Despite this, the Baofeng UV-82 remains a popular choice due to its versatile features and reliable performance.

Communication range is limited to line of sight. In the Tuvan steppes, we managed to maintain communication up to 20 km. In the taiga, it works without problems at 6-7 km, we didn't test further.
Manual tuning capabilities:
- we set up joint operation with channel Motorola without problems;
- channel lock function effectively shields from "spam" on the air.
The stock battery lasts for 2 days. There is an option to use a higher capacity battery, but this increases the size and weight. The stock battery is a more balanced solution.
