Ad Number:	1737341
Date Placed:	07/25/25
Name:	Jay Farlow
Phone Number:	2604503436
Callsign:	W9LW
Category:	RADIOVHF
Heading:	FOR SALE: Baofeng DM-5R DMR/FM Handheld
Ad Message:	Get on DMR inexpensively! This like-new Baofeng DM-5R radio is the second-generation design, which means it’s fully compatible with dual time slot DMR operation. It has the third-party “OpenGD77” firmware installed, which significantly improves the radio’s capabilities as compared to the manufacturer’s firmware. It's configured for repeaters in Fort Wayne, Indiana but I will reconfigure it for the buyer's home area at no extra charge. Even with OpenGD77 firmware, this radio lacks the features of more expensive products, but it uses the same batteries and other accessories as the ubiquitous Baofeng UV-5R FM radio, except that the computer programming cable is different. Included in this sale is the radio, an 1,800 milliamp-hour battery, a belt clip, a desk charger and a “wall wart” power supply for the desk charger. A programming cable is NOT included. Cables are available online for approximately $10. $45 plus buyer pays actual shipping cost.

Your Response to this Ad:

Due to the amount of non-ham scammers trying to respond to the ads, I am now asking a simple question that ham operators should easily be able to answer, but scammers may not know the answer: What is the number that hams use to represent the phrase "Best Regards"? This number is typically transmitted by hams at the end of a QSO.
Best Regards:
