Have you purchased one of these radios? Have you tested the VHF power? Let us know in the comments. While UHF is power is "reasonable" (15-18W) on the two BJ-318&we own, VHF power output averages approximately 1/4 power of your average hand held. We only see 1-2W into a dummy load. The radio has MANY problems that might be easy to overlook for a radio under $100, but this one cannot be overlooked. Bad power amplifier? Bad radio frequency amplifier? Regardless, UV5R 8W handheld&we tested reads 600% more power on VHF. Alternatives for budget similar (25W mobile) HAM radios that actually function close to as advertised: TYT8600, AT-779UV, Leixen VV-898
