Bought a UV-K5 a few months ago, and finally pulled it out and did the mod. For 30 bucks, this thing is pretty cool. Thanks for the video.

I picked up a UV K5 8 from Ali express for £8.50 with free shipping. It's crazy. You can always just set to TX disabled and use the radio as a basic scanner.
-
Good overview. Been using mine with Egzumer and programming using Chirp. It's a breeze once you learn the quirks. Fantastic value for money. Mostly use it for the Airband.

Mine arrives on Friday. 🤝 Thanks for the video.

Thank you for sharing the informative video and a Happy New Year to you.

Thanks for your firmware, combined with a aviation antenna it made a good difference.

Received my UV-K6 about a week ago. Spent several days playing with the original firmware, but I just couldn't get past the terrible AM reception (air band), so last night I got up the nerve to load egzumer v0.22. WOW! AM reception is now all good. It appears egzumer changed the gain distribution and that did the trick. Same thing happened to Elecraft when they introduced the KX3. I am really impressed now. Best "less than $30 USD" I have ever spent. Still exploring scanning, band scope, etc.

the bandwidth of the airband is 8.33 khz, the device only knows 12.5 and 25. Is it possible to use 8.33?
-
am i able to communicate from my uvk5 too a Cobra hand Held Cb Radio? (Real deal Cb Radio not them lower walky talky ones)
-
Hi, do you know if you can set VHF frequencies as favourites and scan those favourites only rather than entire range? Thanks.

Will a NAGOYA NA-24J or 771UHF/VHF dual band antenna work on the 220 350 500 megahertz or should I get a NAGOYA VHF-220-UHF Tri Band
-
You cant transmit on all bands...i have found mine wont let me transit on the CB frequencies
-
8:35 Can't you just press exit button to erase the wrong number?
-
They will receive in AM, FM and SSB, but will only transmit in FM. It is hardware determined, for transmit.
-
I can’t get it to connect to tidradio to my iPad . When I hit read it gets to the almost to the end and stops. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks
-
If you just tap * it opens the dtmf "memory" for a 1 time DTMF sequence TX when you press ptt.
-
I had read that the Audio quality on AM (Air Band for example) is terrible. Your thoughts please? Thanks.
-
At last a video on how to use it in usb mode too. Thanks for this and Happy New Year 2E0HWE
-
I have to install this for all mine!👍🤠

I got the UV K5 (8) 2 days ago and flashed it with Egzumer. Looked ok but I have lost sound somehow. Any ideas on what has happened?
