The Baofeng Killer

Quansheng UV-K5 has been dubbed the Baofeng killer. The Quansheng UV-K5 and its variants have gained a lot of popularity today, often being called the “Baofeng killer”. These low cost HTs are not that impressive out of the box (8w, basic features, same issues as cheap SDR radios like the Baofengs) but intrepid hackers are creating modified firmwares for the radio that improve its feature set. Some of these new features include monitoring (and transmitting, but don’t!) outside of VHF/UHF bands, basic SSB support, onscreen spectrum analyzers, and now remote control.
