      You will need a set of earphones for a phone. You will also need the 2 pin Kenwood connector for the radio. From the radio speaker you wire it up to the mic on the phones earphones. Then from the radio mic you wire it up to the speaker on the phone earphones. Hope it makes sense.

    Nice, way to go on the Quansheng. It's replaced all my Baofeng radios. I don't recommend using VOX as it can cause COMSEC problems in the field, and that feature is not allowed at most public service events. Take care and happy new year.

    • @DuanesMind
      @DuanesMind 2 місяці тому

      Hello yes it's possible with adjusting the capacitors slightly on the pre-drive stage. Well with this mod it will cover 24-30Mhz but tuned more for 27 and 28Mhz. On 29.600Mhz you'll get about 3.5 watts output like it is now. 3.5 watts and 5 watts is nothing you will notice much in signal strength really.

    Very cool link. Do none of the add on boards provide such features? Just wondering what the closest mod to this is with add on boards such as the latest V5? What would the advantages and disadvantages be between the two mods? That mod seems more devoted to those bands But i have nothing to compare it against for the moment.

    • @DuanesMind
      @DuanesMind 2 місяці тому

      Thanks the only add on board is the SI4732 which is really an upgrade to the Radio broadcast band chip that's already in the radio. The Quansheng has 2 radio chips. The first one is the main chip that covers 18-1300Mhz TX and RX. Then the second chip is just for listening to Radio broadcast band and is seperate from the main radio.

    • @izzzzzz6
      @izzzzzz6 2 місяці тому

      Hi, I think it all depends on the firmware if it can receive Radio broadcast band + Shortwave. This is not something I've played around with yet but the SI4732 chip does also cover 88-108 MHz WFM.

      Yes that would be nice but I suppose their main market is VHF and UHF. Most it will go down to is 18 Mhz unless there is another radio chip that will cover all of HF as well. The other issue is the filter section which will take up a bit of space so radio will be double the size.

    Hi! High-quality job. Tell me why the dimensions of your coils (17-17-22) are not the same as in the modification instructions. According to the instructions, you need to make coils of 14-14-17 turns.

    • @DuanesMind
      @DuanesMind 3 місяці тому

      Sure for me these number of turns worked out the best. It's mostly due to my wire being 0.57mm and my shaft about 2.2mm. There will be some small variations in the amount of coil turns depending on these factors. You would have to experiment a little but even doing it the same as in the PDF you'll get good results.
