KG-UVD-1P Unlock and GMRS

1. Unlock software? What specifically does that bring about and can you provide a download link?

2. GMRS/FRS. I use KG-UV Commander to program my rig. How do you effectively program a freq (either FRS or GMRS) to take into account the "frequency interference codes" i.e CH 18-18. I have had my Midland rig set at 18-18 transmit to the Wuoxun, but the Midland will not receive the Wuoxun TX with the Wuoxun set to encode a CTCSS 18 code of 118.8. Am I missing something or is this not possible?

I'm not familiar with the radio, but I suspect the comport assignment com1, com2, com3, etc. is not correct. You may want to ask your question here:

Wouxun_KG-UVD1 : Wouxun KG-UVD1

An excellent source of information!

I had the same problem. I usually have to go into device manager and change the com port to Com 3 manually for it to work. It's a ITA, but otherwise a great radio.

The same site has the unlock program in the Files Section

I have read pages upon pages of debate about part 95 vs part 97 and the suitability of these radios on certain bands and Im honestly not all that worried about it. I really only programmed them in there for monitoring anyway but in a real emergency where TX on those frequencies might be necessary, all rules are out the window as far as Im concerned.

I hate to say this but the all rules out the window will not fly with the FCC,I wish everyone would stop admitting using radios illegally on this forum the FCC knows how to read also and they do frequent this forum.

If you going to use them please don't brag in a open forum
