Just received my 805G today, and I will be using your very helpful video to help me get started. Thanks for posting.

[@Soladaddy]

Hope it helps.

[@badboetie75]

Thanks! Been looking at buying a couple of these. Good vid!

[@Soladaddy]

Thanks.

[@gardnerwebb3749]

Thanks for informing the laymens. 👊

[@greezmunkie]

Those are very nice radios. I have two of them. I also purchased the KG1000G which is also an excellent mobile radio with 50 watt output. Good video

[@Soladaddy]

Don't have one but the KG1000G looks like a very nice radio.

[@ferdinandrodriguez5788]

Thanks. Very good and straight forward video. I already have this radio and I'll be using your video to help set my radio up. Happy to subscribe to your channel.

[@Soladaddy]

Thanks. Have several ideas/topics to put together.

I have this radio, it works to a repeater 32.5 miles away.

Just for everyone's information if the battery on the KG-805G is depleted pretty bad the red charge indicator light will flash but will soon go to solid red.

It's impossible to lock unwanted nuisance channels out of the scan sequence using the internal menu. Even if you purposely program the wrong CTCSS tone to avoid hearing unwanted channels it STILL stops on them but doesn't pass the audio. And as far as I'm concerned, there's really no valid reason why they couldn't have included the NOAA weather channels. Midland was able to do it with their much cheaper walkie-talkies and it works extremely well. Would've been a much better choice over the FM broadcast band. Other than these things it's a great little radio.

[@Soladaddy]

I agree on all points. The scan stopping when toned is irritating.

[@Lord_Stinkfoot]

I have this radio, it's great

[@jesseespinoza367]

Do you have to turn off the ctcs and dcss tones individually on each channel , cause on my baofeng you have to its annoying

[@Soladaddy]

Sorry for the delay as I wanted to double check. It appears that the tone setting is unique to every channel and there isn't a universal switch that can turn it on and off for all at once. The software is very easy to use and the tones can set setup there. I can see the benefit of a master control of the tones.

[@Joeteck]

What menu option is for frequency step for repeater programing?

[@Soladaddy]

For the channels RPT15-22 it is hard coded for +5MHz. For the extra memory slots I think it needs to be done with the software.

[@billisnice]

Does it work with Chirps programming software?

[@Soladaddy]

Haven't checked in months, but last time I looked it wasn't supported. The software is easy to use.

[@frankovito]

How do I turn OFF the AUTOLK once I turned it ON?

[@Soladaddy]

This is a good one because the menu button is disabled with AUTOLK on. I was able to get around the lock by holding the Exit button for 2 seconds. Could then access the menu, but the lock was still turned on. At that point I could leave it on or off.
