After watching @OffRoaderX's review of the Baofeng GMRS-9R, I've been wondering if it's a fully fixed UV-9G without the 8 issues outlined by him back in August, listed below. The ones I have crossed-out I believe are not applicable to the GMRS-9R based off of his review and reviews on Amazon, but if I am wrong, please correct me of course.
Does the GMRS-9R have the following issues that existed on the original inventory of UV-9Gs...
Pre-set CTCSS/DCS on all stock channels?
All channels set to narrowband?
Difficulty swapping the screw to/from the headset cover to/from the programming cable (solved by including two screws in the package)?
Missing CHIRP compatibility?
Baofeng's programming software is in RAR and not ZIP?
Cannot change transmit power with the "#" button?
Inflexible DIY channels?
Antenna interface cannot accommodate other antennas such as the Nagoya NA-771G without modification?
