Hi, thanks for sharing. Have been trying to use my Retevis programming cable with the KD-C1 on my Mac but it doesn't seem to wanna recognise it under Port. Would I need to purchase a different cable do you know? Thanks, Ben
Has anyone managed to save the message in the radio station WLN KD-C1 (Variant of Retevis RT22, Kenwood TK-F6 Smart) ? The message entry is not saved in the memory of the radio station. I save my phone number, and when reading I get the following characters: Embedded Message 1: % D% D)) 0 Embedded Message 2: u Du D 0 %1 D%1D 0'
Good friend, I bought a WLN KD-C1 radio and I still do not have the cable I can not program. At the moment I just wanted to use it as PMR but I do not know the source frequencies. Can you help with the list of 16 frequencies?
hi from your explanation its mean if i want to make same frekuensi between wln and pxton we need to choose which HT that we need to use the frekuensi and then same it
There is an option to add ctcss/dcs on chirp, you wont hear other users of the frequency aside from the ones who have the same tone with you, but they can hear you. If you want a real private conversation on ham radio you’ll need a scrambler capable radio however it would be illegal to use it 😂
Happy New Year :-) ... Chirp''s great for programming the likes of the Baofeng stuff (I use it for my hand held radios) but just wondering if there's any info about the Chirp team supporting the programming of DMR stuff? I dipped my toe into DMR in late 2016 (TYT MD-390) and the steep learning curve for DMR is not helped by pretty basic DMR programming software out of the box that's available. Thanks again 73
Many thanks for the reply Lewis :-) .... Yes, DMR seems a great new technology... it would be good if they could bring out software that made it a bit easier... fingers crossed!
I've read the Zastone ZT-X6 (identical to this radio) can also use VHF frequencies with the right parameters... any truth to this, according to you? Can this be achieved in Chirp?
Hi Lewis, I have purchased a couple of Zeadio ZS-B1 radios and a programming lead. As usual, I'm having trouble connecting to them in CHIRP, and is probably the prolific driver problem? Do you know the prolific driver for windows 10?? Cheers Pal, Alex M0UTA I think these are pretty much a copy of the WLN radios.
Just about to order one of these from Bangood (a Zastone-badged unit). I have a bunch of programming cables for other radios. Is the cable a standard one or more like the the new BF-T1 cable, which seems pretty unique? Thanks
Thanks dude! I have been struggling to find an easy guide to Chirp. And now I've found your video. Just what I needed! 🙂
Can you programme this in chirp to 470-480mhz?
helloo, how can I change the model to KD-C1 Plus? There’s only KD-C1 in the options
Thanks Lewis i will give chirp a go im glad that new radios are being added all of the time. Its a usefull program.
Cheers Gary! Yeah it's a very good programme!
Power High ? Low ? 0.5 w or 2 w
I'd like to know this too.
Hello using baofeng port for programming this wln is not cloning the 2 way radio with a model wln..y?

Thanks mate
wats it mean about:
The radio did not accept program mode after five tries.
Check you interface cable and power cycle your radio.
i cant find the "power" hmm not included in show column too

Google them

Hello sir how can i connect the channel of xt2 cignus to boefeng BF-888s
How do you create a frequency that is private?
There is an option to add ctcss/dcs on chirp, you wont hear other users of the frequency aside from the ones who have the same tone with you, but they can hear you. If you want a real private conversation on ham radio you’ll need a scrambler capable radio however it would be illegal to use it 😂
I tried Chirp on the WLN KD-C1, but I coudn't change the language from Chinese to English.
me too... 😑

Hi Sam, I've not heard of Chirp supporting DMR. I always find DMR programming very complicated! I still struggle now
Many thanks for the reply Lewis :-) .... Yes, DMR seems a great new technology... it would be good if they could bring out software that made it a bit easier... fingers crossed!
Yeah I agree Sam, way too hard to do. I tend to leave it alone haha.
I've read the Zastone ZT-X6 (identical to this radio) can also use VHF frequencies with the right parameters... any truth to this, according to you? Can this be achieved in Chirp?
I wouldn't have thought so no. They do VHF and UHF versions but none that cover both bands.
does is cover kd-c1 plus as well?
Please help me, it wont read on the chirp.
as always, a great video.
Thank you John :)
How to program my previous 4 sets radio with my new other 4 sets.
Hi Lewis, I have purchased a couple of Zeadio ZS-B1 radios and a programming lead. As usual, I'm having trouble connecting to them in CHIRP, and is probably the prolific driver problem? Do you know the prolific driver for windows 10?? Cheers Pal, Alex M0UTA I think these are pretty much a copy of the WLN radios.
I have used the Retevis RT22 software for the Zeadio ZS-B1. Worked a treat.. :-)
Glad you sorted it Alex! Cheers mate!
Hello I have a WLN KD-C52 can I program with chirp?
what is a com port i cant do this :(
Just about to order one of these from Bangood (a Zastone-badged unit). I have a bunch of programming cables for other radios. Is the cable a standard one or more like the the new BF-T1 cable, which seems pretty unique? Thanks
It's like a UV-5R cable Martin :)
In which case, I think I'm sorted. It's now ordered, so looking forward to have a play in the not too distant future. Thanks (G4EFE)
Hi Lewis, James here.. just in case you'd forgotten who I was lol... great introduction to the world of chirp. Keep it up. More bloggs though please ?
Haha! Thanks buddy, Vlog is coming Sunday rog!
Hi ! It said : Radio identification failed .... what can I do ??? Thanks
why do you need to program it?
Hey How can i find the COM port for my laptop that’s the only thing stopping me..??
Look in device manager, you'll see where the cable is plugged in
Ringway Manchester yeah i cannot find it
download usb driver from miklor.com and make sure that your radio is turned on when it is connected to your computer
Yeah i cannot find it on device manager
I'm not sure then, have you installed prolific drivers?
Definitely not easy. I tried it. Nothing worked. At all. Buy at your own risk.
No i haven’t
