Wouxun KG-UV8D: Scanning
The scanning speed is quick. I programmed in a bunch of repeaters and such this morning to test. Sorry it keeps stopping, the local repeaters were busy today.
It appears to scan faster than a Baofeng UV-5R and slower than a Wouxun KG-UV2D.
ReplyDeleteWay too slow to cover 199 memories in a useful period of time.
How about a demo of the x-band features?
ReplyDeleteHere's sort of a demonstration of Cross band repeater operations on the Wouxun KG-UV8D

Yea, still seems pretty darn slow to me.
ReplyDeleteI guess my scanning needs aren't as great as others.
