Fred, that Eggzumer guy is a Genius! How he handled the am distortion on the airband, and how he managed to implement usb, well it is beyond me, but I am so glad he did! This radio is a solution to so much problems... together with the TinySA the best invention since sliced bread!😂

[@simc9684]

downloaded software for radio + following your video i am now able to scan usb . thanks fred

[@WyeindependantMedia]

We use these radios while making our daily videos, we thank you for your tutorials, it really helps us do what we do.

[@wildcatcomms]

Another great Quansheng video, you're really on a roll with these. Take care and 73!

I was picking up Mexico on a telescopic antenna like the one in your video a few months back. Was blown away

Hi FRED JUST LITTLE OLD ME FROM LUTON ALAN, BEEN SORTING OUT MY OLD CBs, I HAVE A HARVARD A MIDLAND ALAN 45 MULTI. AND MY NEW SS9900 VERSION 4. BUT MY MULTIMETERS PLAYING UP,MY QUANSHENG GONE AND LOST ITS FREQUENCIES. AND TO TOP IT OFF MY COMPUTER AND CRASHED.SO I'M HAVING A GOOD DAY, SEEING YOUR CHANNEL AND SKIP IS STARTING TO ROLL IN, PAYDAYS ON THE WAY SO I'M HOPING TO BE UP AND RUNNING BY NEXT WEEK, THANKS FOR CALMING ME DOWN WITH SOME NICE SKIP, SORRY FOR THE RANT BUT I'M BACK CHEERS AND BEERS , ALAN 😱🤔👍

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Thats radio Alan. Half the time you are fixing things that go wrong. I ve had it myself. The radio is fine when there is no skip around and the next day you turn on and you have 20 db blasting in :-). You key the mic and no bloody audio :-(. You spend the rest of the afternoon tracking down a loose wire in the mic plug. You re-solder but by the time your done conditions have changed and the skips gone. Happy days.

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Hi. Thanks for the comments. Hope you and family are keeping well.

[@user-fk9nv7sp7d]

A very good rig.

[@sekibulja-fu3bv]

Excellent, Thank you!

[@95Gabe]

I bought one of these thinking that I might be able to learn something about them. All that I have managed to pick up so far is FM radio...which comes in nice and clear. Not what I meant it for though. The learning curve appears to be quite steep, and although I followed the EGZumer and CHIRP videos (thank you for them) and put the information in I still don't get a peep out of it. Watching a few other videos it seems all you can get are these hissy distorted voices just shouting numbers and letters to one another :) It has been interesting watching the videos, but I don't think that this is for me.

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Like any radio a lot depends on your antenna. To hear CB skip you will need a decent sized antenna outside in the open. A £35 Silver rod base antenna on a pole will work well.

[@richardmillican7733]

I'm playing around with one of these uv k5 radios, mainly because my power supply for my yaesu decided to blow itself up this morning!!

[@user-zz8qn7ne5w]

I used to have a uniden bearcat 35000 XLT ... Still have but can't find it.. could never get recharble batteries or power lead . to use it, and pencil batteries were getting, expensive ! lol I picked up las vegas truckers, From my high rise apartment, on it's own small rubber ducky numerous times , At the time i was in Manchester UK .. I never ever got anything local on it, hardly anyhing at all , but i did not have a clue , i would love to find it, i have orderered the queshen , and subbed buddy.

[@kentaylor6563]

The Low speed data is SSTV.

[@cbrmac]

Nice one Fred ....you may as well use an antenna switch reversed to save having to swap over from radio to the hand held ,? If you already haven't ? . Regards Mac

Frid in the shed iam thinking about getting my Grms license my friend

[@19TC504]

hey fred,just let you know when in spectrum mode you can hit the 0 button to switch mode to fm/am/dsb

[@JimCamel37]

i orderd one off ebay. it came with every thign cept the Antenna. the box got mangled along its journey and i imagine inspected in one of the border security episodes but it was opened and Resealed in a mail bag that said the contents in the parcel arrived in this condition or something from Canada post. so i reordered an antenna from ebay and itll be in the mail tomorow cause i just checkd the Trackign # for it. all in all tho its a beast lil antenna., i own a hand held cb Radio cobra model 50 wx st.

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Yes thats the trouble. I prefer Banggood as you get everything.

[@AdamDeal-KF0PRI]

nice SSTV on 27.700!

[@technic7762]

I got the the uv-k5 a couple of days after getting the new george 2 and can't help thinking it would be great if the £300 radio had a basic spectrum analyzer like the £20 one does

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Yes esp if it was a home base radio.

[@DavidElrick-uz7fm]

Hi fred just got uvk5(8) currently as out of box firmware at moment computer has gone down can firmware be downloaded via tablets If so how

[@samcairns2918]

Sorry for asking but I bought a little quansheng receiver and having dementia I am really struggling to setup basics so asto hear airplane or marine or just anything- I would never be able to install files or the likes I just can’t operate I have took a picture of my display when it’s on - any help would be greatly appreciated thank you Fred from sam ( having wrote this I now can’t figure out how to add the picture I took

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Hi Sam. Yes there is a little bit of learning with these radios. For aircraft you can simple type in 118.000 MHz and scan upwards till around 130 Mhz and then push to scan down again. You need to be in AM set in the DEMOD menu. The standard antenna will receive aircraft if they are overhead. You will prob have to scan a few times up or down to hear anything.

[@hawkinsdaniel7144]

Hi Fred, how do I use headphones with this radio, I've bought a 2.5mm adapter for my headphones and put it into the 2.5mm jack, but it still doesn't work. Thanks

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Yes i have done the same. I only get one ear.

[@hawkinsdaniel7144]

@@CB-RADIO-UK I've now bought a 2 Pin to 3.5mm adapter, should work! Only £1.53 off ali... I'll try to reply again when it comes. Apparently if you have headphones with a mic, you can transmit too. Read that in the comments on the item, so don't know for sure. Only just gotten into radio at the age of 42 years due to my little Quansheng. Bought an Abree tactical antenna, 108cm and have a Harvest RH660S antenna on the way, which should be a bit more practical than the Abree. Still not entirely sure what I'm doing yet, but learning day by day thanks to people like you!

[@axi6ne8us]

How do you get the USBH to show on the display?

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

You need to be running Egzumer and then its No13 in the menu (M button) called Demodu

[@javierarango920]

Does this mod do SSB in VHF/UHF bands?

[@CB-RADIO-UK]

Yes i think so.

[@micwell2247]

Where is the SSB how to program, not that I can see in the description

how do you get it to go to lsb from usb ?

[@OH2023-cj9if]

It's a shame it can't transmit LSB or USB. It transmits a horrible DSB signal. Don't put the radio on a spectrum analyser or you will put it in the bin.

[@alanslade2319]

@@OH2023-cj9if well I've seen people using them on AIR with the spectrum analyser ,so that's a new one, but if that's what going to happen, lucky you can get another one for 20 quid. 😱🤔👍
