Cool study, good report! Lots of interesting things there, including the variability of the Baofengs.
Yes, seems like the consensus here is towards a separate bruiser that’s not too precious.

I’m not suggesting anything illegal. I think we’re having a misunderstanding based on the different ways this works in the US vs Australia? I’ve edited my question to clarify I’m in the US, where “public service” (being communications support for primarily bike and foot races, where I live) does indeed happen on the amateur VHF/UHF bands.
This is who I volunteer with, for context: hpsnc.org
