Is this comparable with BaoFeng BF-888S Two Way Radios?

The baofeng uvf82 can be programed to work with the BF-888s radios but the 82s are more advanced over the 8888s. The 82 will not work digital . The 82x will work on the 220 MHz band.

I have both, and for $27 (on sale -$5 coupon), the Baofeng UV-5B, cannot be beat. but I did purchase two, just in case one dies an untimely death :-)https://hamgear.wordpress.com/2013/07/15/whats-the-best-chinese-dual-band-ht/

Yes, and it comes with an external antenna for the shortwave/longwave and FM. It also has the typical telescoping FM antenna.

You should have no problems pairing them with older radios. Range will most likely not be as good on the older radios but they still have the same channels.

Sorry but this radio sucks real bad and I would not take this radio for Free if they gave it to me.I purchased a Yaesu FT 8800 instead.

I have that cable and it works well with the Baofeng software but the right driver was a problem, a friend of mine that is tuned into to this set it up for me, as I can tell that is going to be the biggest problem.

In my opinion, yes. But, I am a Yaesu fan. I looked at purchasing one when I bough my Yaesu, but the reviews and comments that I was seeing did not paint a good light on the baofeng. A new ham here in town purchased one of the baofeng because of price and has had problems programming it, operating it, etc. Hope this helps.

I own two 888 radios and it seems to improve reception and transmission on both radios. Nice antennas for the price and they look like they came with the radios. Perfect fit and sturdy construction too.

The BF-888S only works in UHF mode. The 400-470 MHz range. The UV-5REs work in UHF and VHF. My local cop channel is in the 155 MHz range, so the BF-888Ss wouldn't be able to pick up most of the transmissions that city, county, and state agencies use.

This radio is analog but it does narrow and wideband.......however this model is one of baofeng's worst ones and is total garbage in my book.....the new UV-82 is a MUCH MUCH better radio. (I have both)..........if you are really under a budget crunch get the uv5r but RUN away from the UVb5 and UVb6...total CRAP

Both of these radios have frequency ranges that are compatible, so yes. Please be aware that you must have an amateur radio license before transmitting. You don't need a license to listen.

Yes. You should check the manual for the frequencies of those radios and then program these radios with them. These have the same frequency range.

I don't think but go to baofengs website hard to navigate but might find a answer

Yes. I purchased this for a Baofeng BF-F8+ and it is an excellent upgrade. The stock antenna is worthless on the Baofeng.

the Kenwood TH6-fa but need to remove clip. Not too crazy about the set up. Not sure about Baofeng.

Sorry can't answer but after reading the manual front to back I would have to say no. Good little limited frequency radio for kids while camping but not a model that would look for different frequencies.

I do not have the slightest idea. As the antenna mounts within a manufacturers product line are the same there is a possibility of compatibility. Is it matched to the frequency range is anybodies guess. Have you checked the specs?
