ftgInside the Quansheng UV-K5 stock antenna.
Was given an extra, so I pulled it open to see how this particular one was made.
Interesting to see a PCB instead of just a cap.
And it as space for two SMD caps.
Matt GumbleyBriefly tried the #Quansheng (IJV Firmware) for #2MetreTuesday last night, but listening to its output on another radio, heard an odd “ringing”. It keyed OK but didn’t entirely stop emitting a weak carrier in between dits/dahs. I wondered whether STE caused this, turned it off, little change. Any ideas? #HamRadio
Does anyone have a view on what is the best external speaker/mic with a Kenwood K1 for a #Baofeng or #Quansheng radio? A relatively inexpensive one - I know there’s a Kenwood KMC-45D but it’s a tad pricey (although probably very good). #HamRadio
While testing the #Quansheng with IJV 3 firmware, on FM, the external speaker mic’s PTT didn’t work. The mic is good on other handhelds. Either the Quansheng has a fault, or the IJV f/w has a fault.. never tested this handset with an external mic prior to flashing. Or perhaps there’s a setting to enable it that I haven’t found?
Wow, the latest IJV firmware for the #Quansheng UV-K5(8) is incredible! It Has A Bazillion Options(tm)! What would be even more awesome is Quansheng seeing what what’s been facilitated here, and producing an open handheld of a little higher spec, with switchable band filters and PA that gives a good output at HF too. They could OWN #HamRadio with that.

Some more Quansheng TK-11 images dropped.
This time of the internals.
The images seem to be of the triband TK-11(8).
Thanks for Dimitar Milkov for bringing these images to my attention and Silent YANG for taking them.
Arnie the DXmanHonestly, that was to be expected. 🦆cheng must have noticed what people were doing with their radios and what functions they were adding with both software AND hardware mods... so here they come up with an official product incorporating all of them! BRING IT ON! 🔥🔥🔥 #Quacheng #Quansheng #Kwaczeng
