HaHa. Agree. It's why I almost always use a single band radio. It also maximally simplifies the antenna too, with better performance. But just for reference, Kenwood GIVES you programming software that is super simple to use.
And one other radio thing. Beofeng SUCKS. They can kiss my ass. I used to like them. I've had 3 of their radios. Lots of spare batteries. Many antennas. Strange programming cables. And don't try to program from the keyboard. That especially sucks and is the invention of the devil. They work fine for a time. Better than that, actually, they work really well. Sometimes. For 2 years maybe. But they are a pain in the ass to program (CHIRP is good tho), they are a pain in the ass to keep charged when mobile, and they are really cheap. But they suck. They make odd rhythmic noises. They pick up interference where none exists. They lull you in with that cheap, cheap, Chinese bottom feeder price, but then they give you the shaft with the impossible programming, the piss poor buttons and the weird LED light that has a mind of it's own. Get one if you must, but plan on a real (Kenwood, Yaesu, Icom [in that order]) replacement if you enjoy the advantages of Ham radio on the trail. So IMHO Beofeng is the poor dirty cousin of Harbor Freight in the radio world. It's made in China, it sort of works, it never comes up to specs, it dies an early death, and gets relegated to the dust bin of your life. (Disclaimer: I have nothing against Chinese products. My iPhone is great, my Kenwood (sadly now made in China) radios are great it's just that Beofeng does not play in the same league.)
And I'll talk to you on the trail with my 13 year old Japanese Yaesu 2800 with perfect clarity from one end of the Rubicon to the other! (and its successor the 2900 is made in China and works great too)
