Does anyone have the model number of the Baofeng radios that were being used at the crawl?
Looking at the boxes I have, it does say UV-5RA.
Here is the link to the 5RA. Not sure there is any difference than the 5R that Tim linked. They are compatible.

Why would you need to link it to your PC? What is that about?
That is the one we used Dirk.
Andy and Tim said the radios have to be programmed so you need the cable to be able to do that.
We reprogrammed them after the raffle.
Yes.
I'm going to go ahead and throw out the disclaimer to use these radios on FRS channels only unless you have a HAM license.
FWIW I prefer my CB. Mainly because I have absolutely no where to put this thing.
