<div dir="ltr">The Baofang UV-5 radios are finicky, because the Tx and Rx "serial port" lines are shared wtih the audio (mic in and sp out) lines. Therefore, it is essential that you tune the radio to an unused RF channel and trun the volume all the way up to 100% (I'm not sure, but I think you should set the squelch to at least the first level, also). If you do not do this, the radio's speaker out wire (i.e. RxD in to the serial port) will be too weak and it will be noisy.<br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, Apr 6, 2019 at 7:07 PM Justin R <<a href="mailto:armatiage2001@gmail.com">armatiage2001@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Good Evening Everyone;</div><div>I am running into an issue trying
