    sorry I thought you had an UV5R variant in there
    must be all the members ham radio ops, thats a cool thing to have in such a large group
    I know one overland group that allows non hams in their party to use the ham bands which is totally illegal
    but as they say who is gonna catch them

    You are probably referring to the UV-5X3 which looks like a UV5R, but is instead made by BTECH, not Baofeng.

    On my hunting lease there are only 5 members. 3 of us are Hams. The other 2 guys sometimes want to use radios and sometimes not. When they do, we use our GMRS licenses, which we all have. There is a noticeable difference between the range of a GMRS radio and that of one of the ones I mention in this video.

    Making asinine faces for the Youtube video thumbnail must be a proven traffic generator, but personally it makes me not want to click on the video. Not trying to denigrate, I know how hard it can be to produce content. I am about half the age of the average ham lol, so I am not some angry get off my lawn type....it just makes me assume something is lacking and being made up for.

    He's playing 'air guitar'. Likely a Les Paul....

    I'm not sure Jason would even know who Les Paul was. He might know about Jimmy Hendricks though.

    A Gibson "Les Paul" is a solid body guitar,

    They come in hollow-body styles too.

    That's a great example of a tiny exception trying to be called the rule ;)

    I've been playing guitar for 50 years.... have owned 9 different Les Pauls over the years and nary a one was anything but 100% solid wood body.

    A one-off SKU from 2015 hardly redefines the model

    You've been playing as long as me. My current LP is solid body but that model I linked is not the only (semi) hollow-body model either. Here's some more on the used market: https://reverb.com/p/gibson-memphis-es-les-paul

    Here's another variant of the Gibson Memphis: http://legacy.gibson.com/Products/Electric-Guitars/2016/Memphis/Alex-Lifeson-Signature.aspx

    Or this one with a Bigsby Tremolo: https://reverb.com/item/37496887-gibson-memphis-es-les-paul-with-bigsby-2016-bourbon-burst-with-ohsc
