The cheap radio that is worth more in excitement. Credit to people who spent their time making the firmware great.
Man, this is awesome! This little radio just keeps amazing me! 😎
Thank you Paul. Always something good presented.
How do you switch to SSB and bring up the table etc and have the backlight on all the time ?
Ssb - push fm button to Switch to AM/FM/USB
the table - push PTT button
The uvk5 is quite nice. Comparing to a Radtel it disappointed me a bit on receiving milsat but it was slightly more sensitive then my stabo receiver and my yaesu handheld.
The cracked firmware and the price is the strongest asset for this piece.
Thank you Paul, most interesting video I must say. I enjoyed making contact with you QRP a week or so ago, which was a nice surprise and you were live on TH-cam.. Great stuff, Mike Nottingham, UK G8POL
At 8:45 you press the M button which highlights the fist of 8 choices. Could you tell me what the 8 choices are for? IF and MIC I will assume is I.F like in Intermediate Frequency
and MIC could be the Mic gain? What do the others represent? Thanks, Ken
Thanks! Your videos keep getting better and better.
This is a crazy little Radio Paul, I’ll definitely be trying that Firmware. Thanks for sharing 73’s
This is my favorite firmware for this radio, so far. A worldwide receiver that will do a great job as a tri band FM transceiver.
Thank you for the videos on this unique device. 73's🎙KD9OAM🎧📻📡 🚧
Great to see this. Could you make a video about the upgrade of the firmware? I would appreciate this very much. 73’s PD0ELK
I caught another video but unfortunately for me it was not in English describing what I believe a different firmware allowing
DSB (Double Side Band) for Transmit. Have you heard of that yet and if so have you tried it. I want to try one of these
but so many modded bins out there. I downloaded the bin your showing and might give it a go.
Would there be a explanation how to use the new features? (What buttons do what) Also would you know if this firmware has the improved AM quality?
In the scope screen use 9 to bring down the squelch line and it’ll receive that way.
Ďakujem om8el.Nech sa darí!
Dzięki. Bardzo przydatny film.
Is the scope screen part of the software upgrade? Really liked this video very helpful
I have 3 now, great emergency radio with the firmware mod, and so cheap!
Thanks Paul. :)
Everybody's talking about firmware....
Hi Paul I've just acquired 3 of these new standerd what do I need to unlock all frequencies please
Thank you for your review! You gave a link to the firmware, but there are a lot of them. Can you provide a link to just this SSB firmware? Please!!! Thanks a lot!
Just ordered one very interesting inexpensive little radio thanks for the video
Can you show how you installed the software?
So omoet. Because of this vid I bought 2 of these radios. Was really studying on LSDR’s till I ran in to this vid, (thank you) think these will serve my purpose much better for the $ and portability 🤙🏼🖖🏼🖖🏼
I bought two after the video too! Amazing radio and firmware.
Hey. Great Video! Is it possible to send out a transmission in 11 Meter Band? Or just with some milli watts? Regards
This is the best firmware so far in my opinion. This will also work on the Radtel 590. Receives from 10.000 to 1300.000 and transmit from 14.000 to 1300.000.
that is some crazy frequency range
I don't see a Radtel build in the Github... Are you using the K5 build? K6? how is overall compatibility? are any features broken on that radio?
How to transmit
Nice video, thanks for posting. That said, can you recommend a digital "version" of this radio? Thanks.
wold there be any documentation describing how to use the new firmware, basically how to access the features.
OMG .....Definately an improvement to the cheap chineese hand helds for sure ......
cheers de VK4LA
Quansheng is also Chinese
That is simply amazing! Thanks very much for sharing
Might be a stupid question, but I’m new. Can I pick receive frequencies outside my antenna’s stated range? I have a foldable 136-460 antenna. Will it pick up cb frequencies?
Radio bude tupé..I na příjem CB to chce antenu 27Mhz..Odzkoušeno...73
Wow super thanks :) nice video
when I press the link for the custom firmware, the one that is selected is the one i have to download?
van you also send on the CB freq ?
Is there a new firmware that has LSB? The firmware I have only has USB, need both!
Best software to flash I've used, nice one for sharing
Many thanks. It works like you presented in your nice video. 👌☝
Very interesting, thank you! I am a beginner and interested in RX only. Is it mandadory to use such an antenna? I tried with the original one but without any success. ...just noise.
Also just a beginner. But antennas are designed for certain frequencies and the original one is probably just designed for 70cm
Thanks for the great video.
I have just ordered a few to have a mess about with, it's unfortunate that the prices advertised on aliexpress inflate before you pay and they claim to be adding VAT at 20% on behalf of the UK Government - that is nonsense ! Radios at £9 were £14 at the checkout...
Great little radio, can't wait to have a play and also see how good it is with 2m/70cm - I will definitely use it as a wideband RX.
Thanks Paul great video. I presume the new fw will not allow CB bands 11m Tx on AM/FM/SSB ?
No filters for transmit, splatters everywhere else with more power than on the freq itself, just tried it into a dummy load through an SA.
Great demonstration! Very nice radio. Does it work well on CB band?
Thanks! 😊 On receive yes, not on TX
@@OM0ET that’s good to know. I only want to use it for reception 👍
It's a very good firmware. But I have a question: is there any way to disable transmission on other bands but radio amateurs (enable TX only in radio amateurs band). With this firmware, I can transmit even in aerial (planes) band and commercial bands. Thank you.
Will this firmware work with the uv-k5? I found the answer and it does. Thanks for sharing.
How much does the antenna matter like will the stock antenna pick up am/stuff out of spectrum? even though it's 136-174/400-480?
after firmware upgrade, you can still use Ham 2m and 70cm correct?TX/RX?
Amazed by this radio! What a fantastic review, i Hope Quansheng gave you the radio for free! Ive bought 2 thanks to you!
Thanks! 😅 I've bought 3 already.
I had mine delivered Saturday, so updating them both later.
I’ve ordered mine but it’s not coming with the programmable lead although I have one that will fit from a retevis rt3s does anyone know if that will work?
Great video cheers
Hi paul chris from north wales UK just done the firmware with success but no sound on the shortwave bands i managed to get it down on 4mhz so i hope i can listen to worldband broadcasts on this upgrade am i doing something wrong having no sound the squelch is on 0
При использовании штатного наушника quansheng при приеме начинает греться наушник, прям ощутимо внутри ухо греется. Когда нет рриема, остывает. У всех так?
From what i seen on GitHub this Firmware works on the Standard UV-K5 Also.Is this correct?
thanks Paul great job.
Will your firmware also work on the Retevis RA79 which looks to be the same radio ?
Is there a RF gain in the firmware, could be a useful radio for RDF fox hunting.
On which bands you can transmit with the new firmware and is ist possible to transmit in any band on USB?
Hi, with this firmware I' m not able to use the "air copy function" between two radios. Do you know how it is possible to activate this function?
I want to buy a 27 MHz antenna just like yours. I've seen one but it's 150cm (59 inch), which one is better? 130 cm (51 inch) or 150 cm (59 inch?
@OM0ET Thanks Paul for this really nice Radio. But can you show hoe to install and update this new Firmware? It is in this Bands only receive or also transceive? If i can see how to do than i will order one of this Radio. 73
Wow. I'm an old ham, but I just ordered one. I still want a HT that will do ssb and FM on 10 meters on the xmit side. I know this will technically do it, but it's not efficient at all, plus it has all kinds of spurious radiation.
Please excuse my ignorance everyone,as I'm very green when it comes to radios etc.
My question is,if the firmware is updated on this radio,one will be able to also transmit on ssb?
I don't have the funds to outlay expensive equipment,however i live remotely in Australia and the area is quite good for receiving skip early in the mornings and evenings.Was hoping this unit with the mod might be able to get me some enjoyment in my retirement years without breaking the bank.
Any comments would be gratefully received.
We need full shortwave bands please will look forward to any upgrades with firmware many thanks paul
When I go to the firmware page for which you have provided the link, there are several firmware upgrades by fagci for this radio. Which one of these upgrades enables the features that you show in this video? 73 Mark KK2L.
Please read the description carefully 😉👍
Any firmware for the Xiegu X5105 that improves receive audio? The last ver 3 could be better.
What firmware is this? Open Spectrum Firmware by facgi , this one? or other ?? pls reply
I ordered one of these from Aliexpress to use as a portable receiver. I sold a Realistic 10 channel scanner last year for $50 which is probably worth next to nothing now...
¿Cómo conseguiste que la radio mostrara sólo una banda? No encuentro ningún menú para hacer esto.
Do you have a list of frequencies you have or maybe a chirp file ?
Will the radio tune more finely for example 27.78125 instead of 27.78000 as the CB sounded off frequency in your demonstration. I guess im asking if it has 12.5khz steps?
Yes
Yes
Received the UV-K5(8) yesterday, and tried uploading custom firmware via a laptop with windows server and at 16% i got a BSOD :) I thought, ok, i bricked the UV-K5, but no! it just could be started up with the white led and was succesfully upgraded via another windows 10 pc... so wow i'm so happy with it and so glad it didnt brick when the 16% BSOD happened!
and for now, the AM FIX (airband) sounds a lot better with strong signals, but with weak signals the noise/hiss is louder then it should be imo, but maby when the programmers can get more information on how to program that chip, maby they can update the am fix better... srry for the grammer..
After updating to this firmware, can you transmit ?
After updating unlock 18-1300, from stock firmware 31, and using RSSI bar 78, why does the LCD sometimes give an error when we PTT (freq 142) and also sometimes go blank, finally I restarted it back to normal.
I tried again on uvmod with firmware 26, unlock 18-1300 and rssi bar 78, still the same symptoms as above.
Does anyone experience something like me?
How did you got Windows to recognmize this device? I tried to install the driver, but I get a "language not supported" message on both Wiindows 10 and 11...
is this the right firmware installation file for HF SSB (as seen in the video) ? uv-k5-firmware-fagci-mod-v1.1.2-SSB-lite-test . that is a "BIN" file , that in the link you have in the description of your video. how to install that firmware ? i would like to see a video how that firmware is installed.
check description...
Oh, I'm trying. I've bought two of these radios.. different flavors, of course, and they are both paper weights!
Have the quencheng k5(8) and the dm1801 my computer won't recognize either of them.
Tried to hand program but theirs is nothing on tbe internet 😢😮
Good review, tks!
What bands can you transmit on?
Can you transmit on 27555.00 usb ?
can you switch between modulations ? SSB/AM/FM ?
does it comes with a UART-USB adapter to upload the Firmware?
Can this radio be used to receive CW signals and receive Morse Code audio?
Hi all I have problem with loading the updater software.
I have tryed this on both Win 7 and win10 and get an error saying the language is not known by the installer
If anyone knows what the problem is let me know many thanks
Hi All, can any advice if the radio can pick up mid band frequencies, 66-88mhz?
Is there a downloadable user manual for this firmware that includes the new keybinds? thanks
Great video! Does SSB reception include the 50, 70, 144 and 433MHz bands? Thanks
Yes
1) Can you transmit SSB on 70cm and 2m?....2) Without a lot of spurious emissions? Thanks for the vid.
@@edwardstavin6672 Only SSB RECEPTION is possible. Not transmission.
Can you scan the vhf bands also, I love the display. I just ordered the UV-K5 not (8)
But does it also transmit on USB 27.555 and other ham bands or is it just a scanner
How can earth are they managing this? Does it have an SDR receiver inside that allows whatever demodulation the firmware can manage?
:D thanks God we have so smart HAM's who can hack this radio and create a new program. Yes, UV-K5 is a SDR transceiver.
Yupp most of these cheap Chinese tranceivers are SDR. Being a SDR developer myselve i know it jst wasd a mather of time that the real inovative software versions would appear
Muchísimas gracias
Is this a regular uvk5? I bought one about 6 months ago.
The link for the firmware installer gives a security warning. I still opened it and all downloads are in Chinese so no idea which one is the installer
I have Question, after upgrade use this Firmware for copy to device still normal or not?
thanks for the video. I would like to know where I can get the software for SSB. thank you
Does this mod include the AM mod for airband which improves AM reception.....?
Yes, AM reception is much much better now! 👍
how do you switch to ssb? i order this radio 2 with a program cable i need to know how to do it
please, what is the best benefit cost cb (26-27mhz) transceiver (for truck use)?
la gran pregunta se puede modular en esas frecuencias o solo escucha?
Ask questions in English.
Is there any manual on how to operate the firmware update. I can't seem to be able to select usb. Regards
Press F & 0
Great video, can you show how to upgrade the firmware?
Can you use this straight out the box I’m not getting the cable with mine
No space on mine to put usb on its 32 meg
I am assuming you can transmit on these added frequencies.... Is that correct?
You know? Even if it doesn't, the price I can buy this radio for, is still worth the mod for receiving. Thanks for the video
Can you transmit on HF bands & can you transmit on CB bands ?
Finally.😍
Quick question. If I was to upgrade the firmware so it did ssb, would I be able to receive 2 meter ssb signals ? Thank, Jack
Yes of course. On all available frequencies. Latest IJV even transmit CW and virtual DSB mode.
i believed somebody going get this radio tx on cb channels that would be nice.
I bought one last week, got it charged up, and that's about it.
