I believe they are all BaoFeng UV-5R+/UV5R.

They were recommended for us when off roading to communicate between vehicles, but never seemed to work great at that.

Somewhere I think I still have the usb programming cable for them.

Edit: apparently the intent of my post was lost in my poor wording of the title. It has been updated to better reflect that I would like to use them, but for what? And how?

They have a recieve range of 134-176 I think and 420-480, as long as it's standard analog you should be able program in some fun things to listen to.

I have one setup for railroad frequencies and I hear some unique conversations.
