I have those walkie talkies, you have to change the frequencies to legally use them in the UK and you can turn that voice off while you're on the settings too
+Daniel Clarke Correct, I was thinking the same. I have my amateurs license so I don't need to worry, but for general use they should be set to the UK PMR frequencies. Im not 100%, but I think they need to output 0.5watts or less as well!
The Two way radio is a 4w NON PMR radio. ( licence free radios are 0.5w pmr ) You would first off need to Reprogram the Radio to a uk business range and also get a Business Radio Licence that is issued by the Office of Communications (“Ofcom”)
Just for your information: the walki talkie's are (as far as i know) at least in germany not allowed for private use which means that you have to buy a license to use the frequencies used by the walki talkie. They can also operate in the PMR frequency range (license free frequencies) but are not PMR compliant which means that you are not allowed to use this frequencies with this hardware. This information apply at least for germany, other country's may have different regulations. I checked this because i was intrested in the exact same walki talkie as a replacement of some PMR walki talkies i have used before, but due to the regulations i bought a set of PMR devices (DeTeWe PMR 8000 Quad) they are license free and work for normal venues really well (tested outdoor on an event over a distance of about 1,2 km without a problem)
I use the baofeng radios for small events. Just make sure you buy a programming cable and program them to the proper PMR frequencies. They are handy to use if you want to buy a licence too though! Plus there is an option to turn off the annoying speaking. Did love the "Low Battory" pronunciation though. Tried the Wave but much prefer the Wingman. Got all the tools I need, great knife and best of all, Cheap (ish) as I loose them way too easily.
Questions about the wireless router. Can I connect two components. For instance, I have a DBX Driverack PA2, and mydmx 2.0, and the ipad app for both devices.
Neat list. I would definitely include both a cable tester and a power tester in that list.

Yeah it is 0.5w but them Baofengs can go down to below 0.8w and nobody enforces it so it would be fine anyways
Fair point, I'm assuming it's not that easy to track down radio signals.
great to see you again What about Doing a Technical theatre video For instance hairpins For mics, Lx tape ,IN EARs
excellent video. Thanks for the tips. looking forward to next episode
Another wireless router like the TP Link router is the Hootoo Tripmate Nano and it has a USB Plugin for a flashdrive
nice video man and a really good series
I thought I was pretty prepared, looks like I'll have to add the Bosch Laser Tape Measure tool.
+Jose Heredia Its cool. Though if your looking to buy find one with a longer range!

Turn it to low power and it goes down to below 0.8w and just program PMR446 into it
Nice idea for the new series ! Great gadgets!!!

The Baofengs he is using can operate in PMR446 which is legal in the Uk but you need to program them
Great video! well done
Always good to see you new gadgets
Great tips.

The 888s are really good walkie talkies but like you said if he didnt program them he is using them illegally

Yes you can
Great stuff
Hi joe can you or some one tell me how far TP links wireless range is do you no weather it's more than 10ft??? Thanks
Yeaaaaa new videooosssss
omg new video 😆😆😆😆
Great Advice.
Thanks so much!
baofengs aren't cheap, I use a uv5r for airsoft and it's really good
Cable tester!
Did you program the frequencies on the Baofeng because if you are using the out of the box frequencies you are operating illegally
