  • How to Access the RadioID DMR Database in the KG-UVN1

    One of the unique advantages of purchasing a Wouxun KG-UVN1 Dual Band DMR Digital Two Way Radio from Buy Two Way Radios is that it comes pre-loaded with the RadioID.net contact database right out of box. This sounds like a great feature, and it is! What may seem confusing to those who are new to digital radios is the question of how to access and view it.

    For someone who is accustomed to analog walkie talkies, the natural expectation is that such a contact list would be readily available to view directly from the menu when you turn the radio on. However, the KG-UVN1 is a digital radio, which operates differently from its analog counterpart, and requires a different approach to its programming and operation.

    In this video, Steven from our tech department at Buy Two Way Radios shows you how to load the RadioID DMR contact database into the Wouxun KG-UVN1 programming software and access it from your computer.

  • The TYT MD-UV390 Plus is now available!

    TYT MD-UV390 Plus Dual Band Digital DMR Two Way RadioTYT is a leader in DMR, particularly among the amateur radio crowd. The MD-380 has long been the go-to DMR radio for hams, the MD-390 has its niche, and the MD-9600 is an extremely popular mobile digital radio as well. A few years ago the manufacturer added dual band capability to DMR with the MD-2017, MD-UV380 and MD-UV390. Now they are adding a Plus. Introducing the new TYT MD-UV390 Plus Waterproof Dual Band DMR Digital Two Way Radio!

    The new TYT MD-UV390 Plus has a lot of the same features as its predecessors, plus GPS, IP67 dust and water protection, AES-256 encryption and more. Let's learn more about each one of these.

    Dual Band DMR
    The original MD-390 was a single band DMR radio and was available in UHF and VHF versions. The MD-UV390 Plus GPS operates in either analog or digital mode on 136-174MHz VHF frequencies at up to 5 watts and 400-480MHz frequencies in the UHF band at up to 4 watts. Of course, as a DMR radio, it uses Time-Division Multiple-Access (TDMA) digital technology on a single 12.5kHz channel at either high or low power.

    AES 256 Encryption
    Digital encryption is nothing new, and is standard for other TYT DMR radios. For instance, the original MD-390 supports 128-bit encryption, and it is difficult to break with today's technology, which makes it still quite secure. The MD-UV390 Supports AES 256-bit encryption. This means that the encryption key is double the length of the 128-bit encryption key on previous models, making the UV390 Plus even more secure.

    TYT MD-UV390 Plus with PTT button

    IP67 Dust and Water Rating
    For added protection against harsher outdoor environments, the MD-UV390 Plus is rated IP67 dust and waterproof. The rating indicates the radio is impervious to ingress from dust and is submersible in up to 1 meter of water for a duration of up to 30 minutes. This means that the MD-UV390 Plus can handle a myriad of dirty, wet and muddy conditions in the field, making it a rugged companion for use outdoors and in various emergency situations. It does not mean that it is considered intrinsically safe, which is important to keep in mind if one in considering a radio for use in potentially hazardous environments where there may be exposure to flammable or explosive materials. Such conditions require a radio with an IS certification and rating.

    Also, it is important to note that The MD-UV390 Plus is dust and waterproof only when the accessory port is completely and properly covered and sealed. The radio is not fully waterproof when a headset or other accessory is connected to the audio accessory port.

    GPS Capability
    The MD-UV390 Plus is also equipped with GPS technology to can send and receive data between other DMR radios, including longitude, latitude and elevation. For the most part, if all of the radios are compatible with Motorola Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) Tier 2 Standard protocol, they should be able to send, receive and share this data. However, The MD-UV390 Plus does not natively support APRS.

    Part 90 Type Accepted for Business
    The MD-UV390 Plus is legal for amateur or business use. It is FCC type accepted for Part 90, which makes it a very economical choice for businesses, commercial operations and organizations that are moving to digital but want to avoid the expense of buying a $400-$1200 digital or analog/digital hybrid radio, or an entire fleet of them.

    3000 Channels
    Let's be honest here, most small businesses that use digital radios don't usually need more than 16 channels, and many of them can operate on less than four. This sort of thing is more attractive to the ham radio community. Even so, while nice to have, how many amateur operators actually need a thousand channels or more? Yet, TYT did it anyway, giving the MD-UV390 Plus no less than 3000 memory channels to store all of those frequencies for instant access as ostensibly needed.

    TYT MD-UV390 Plus Display

    Color LCD Display
    The TYT MD-380 and MD-390 series radios that have a color display, so it comes as no surprise that the MD-UV390 Plus has one too. While not quite as rich and colorful as the Wouxun analog models, it does rival the full color LCD display of the Wouxun KG-UVN1 DMR digital radio. The image is clear and sharp, the alphanumeric characters are easy to read, and the icons are simple and clean. Plus, the screen of the MD-UV390 Plus is brighter, making it easier to read in direct sunlight than the screen of the Wouxun radios.

    Features and Functionality
    All the standard features of other TYT MD Series digital DMR radios are in the MD-UV390 Plus as well. These include channel scan, priority channel scan, group call, private call and all call options, repeater capability, CTCSS/DCS support, custom display messages, text messaging, talkaround and DTMF support for remote commands such as stun, kill and activate. Most full featured, higher end business radios have these or equivalent features these days, it should come as no surprise they are included with the MD-UV390 Plus, except perhaps a clock. And it has one.

    TYT-MD-UV390 Plus Dimensions

    Size and Weight
    The MD-UV390 Plus is similar in size and weight to its predecessors, measuring 5.15 inches high, 2.4 inches wide, and 1.41 inches deep. Although not a tiny transceiver, it's ergonomically comfortable to hold, operate and carry. Weighing in at 9.1 ounces, it's not a heavy handheld, either.

    Programming the MD-UV390 Plus
    The MD-UV390 Plus requires the programming software provided by TYT. Although some items can be customized from the radio menu, it is highly recommended to use the programming software for full access to the radio. Every feature and function of the radio in both analog and digital modes can be configured from there.

    TYT-MD-UV390 Plus Accessories

    The UV390 Plus has two programmable side keys. Each key can be programmed to perform two separate functions, one on a short press, the other on a long press of the key. The list of assignable functions includes Alert Tones, Power Select, Monitor, Repeater/Talkaround, Scan, Record, Playback, VOX, Lone Worker, and more. There are more than 26 available functions on the list!

    Accessories
    The MD-UV390 Plus includes two removable antennas, belt clip, charger tray, AC cable, and an owner's manual. While not very comprehensive, the manual does help understand the main features and programmable options, so it's still worth a read.
    The TYT MD-UV390 Plus is available from Buy Two Way Radios.
    Price: $119.99.

    Programming with software
    The KG-Q10H uses the same Wouxun PCO-001/PCO-009 USB programming cable that works with most other Wouxun handheld radios. Refer to the cable driver installation instructions for more information.

    As with other Wouxun radios, the KG-Q10H programming software is specific to this radio and is currently available for Windows PCs only. The programming software is located on the Wouxun KG-Q10H product page at Buy Two Way Radios.

    KG-Q10H Operation
    The KG-Q10H operates in much the same way as other Wouxun GMRS handheld radios with full keypads, displays and menus. If you already have a KG-935G Plus or other Wouxun radio that is field configurable, operating the KG-Q10H is about the same. Although some keys on the keypad may be different in label and function from some of the other models, they are not difficult to to use once you understand what they do.

    The keys on the keypad and their primary functions are listed below:

  • Announcing the Wouxun KG-Q10H Quad Band Handheld Amateur Radio!

    Wouxun KG--Q10H Quad Band Portable Handheld Amateur Two Way RadioWouxun has announced the launch of a new quad band portable handheld radio with GPS location capability, the KG-Q10H! This entry into the long awaited Q Series introduces a whole new generation of portable transceivers that could reset the bar for handheld amateur radios worldwide.

    The new Wouxun KG-Q10H quad band amateur two way radio is packed with a lot of advanced functionality and premium features. But before we get into the details, we need to address the euphemistic elephant in the radio room.

    Why another Wouxun Amateur radio?
    In a world long dominated by the likes of Icom, Kenwood and Yaesu, there was a time when the choice of a premium ham handheld transceiver or ht was limited to certain well established models with specific amateur-centric features. It was a sort of an unwritten rule in the amateur world that to achieve some legitimacy and credence as a ham in the hobby, you were expected to acquire at least one of these highly revered models.

    However, in just the last ten years, countless numbers of handy talkies, also abbreviated as ht(s), have burst on the scene, many from a mob of unfamiliar brands. Today there are a plethora of handheld amateur radios out there, with a seemingly infinite number of different and sometimes eerily similar models from which to choose. It is becoming more and more commonplace to find these radios in the hands of hams everywhere. There is even a sort of "collect them all and trade them with your friends" kind of culture among many in the ham community, particularly newcomers. After all, one can never have too many radios, can one?

    So, with all of the choices already available, why another ham radio? What makes this one different from all the rest?

    Because this portable handheld radio is set to redefine the way you communicate in the amateur radio world.

    Wouxun KG-Q10H RightQuad Band Transmit Capability
    The typical handheld amateur radio is limited to transmitting on either a single or dual band. A select few, such as the TYT TH-350, may even be capable of transmitting on up to three. The KG-Q10H is different. It's a quad bander, capable of reception and transmission on four, namely the 1.25 meter, 2 meter, 6 meter and 70cm amateur radio bands! This broad coverage ensures that you can stay connected with fellow amateur radio operators across multiple frequency ranges.

    But we're just getting started.

    Multi Band Receive
    In addition to the quad band transmission, the KG-Q10H can receive a broad spectrum of frequencies across multiple bands. You can hear on Airband in AM mode, 320-480MHz in FM Mode, and 714-999 MHz in FM. It also has a built-in broadcast FM radio. And yes, it is equipped with a superheterodyne receiver, in case you were going to ask.

    Enhanced Weather Alert Notifications
    The KG-Q10H features 7 pre-set NOAA weather channels, providing you with real-time weather updates. Although the weather channels themselves are nothing new to portable handheld radios, The Q10H takes the concept of weather alerts to another level. The radio provides five weather alert notifications, ensuring you never miss critical weather information. Be it a severe storm, tornado warning, or other hazardous condition, the KG-Q10H has got you covered.

    GPS Location Data Display
    Another advanced feature of the KG-Q10H is the addition of GPS location tracking. Equipped with GPS technology, this handheld radio can send, receive and map geo-location data between other Wouxun Q Series radios and display it on its dual-channel color screen. Knowing your location is invaluable during coordinated outdoor group activities or emergency situations, and by utilizing this GPS enabled feature, the KG-Q10H provides that added layer of safety and peace of mind.

    Simultaneous Dual Channel Receive
    The KG-Q10H is essentially two radios in one! This enables the radio to receive two signals on two different bands or frequencies at the same time. Naturally, this brings up an obvious question. Does it have cross-band repeat capability? Of course, the answer is yes.

    Cross Band Repeat and Output Power
