Wouxun KG UVD1P Programming

[N8HO]

I recently purchased a Wouxon KG-UVD1P dual band HT from Radio City.  Trying to program the radio using the instructions in the manual was very confusing.  I tried to return the radio, but was told a hefty restocking charge would be assessed.  I obtained a programming cable and software, but still no luck.  I continue to receive a message when trying to "write to" the radio that it can not be found.  Any help will be appreciated.

Visit the Yahoo group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/KG-UV_Commander/ for info on using the great (and free) Commander software.

The Commander software is WAY better than what comes with the programming cable.

See in the manual about how to set the radio in cloning mode.
That is what I had to do with my Wouxun KG-688 to be programmed.
