A detailed user review of the Wouxun KV-UG950PL quad‑band FM mobile rig covering build quality, features, menu system, and programming software.
The review describes the KV‑UG950PL’s rugged construction, industrial‑style case, and front‑panel layout, noting the inclined head unit, RJ45 microphone plug, and the ability to separate the microphone from the main body. It also covers the dual‑side design, with the right side limited to 2 m and 70 cm, and the inclusion of a separation cable and external speaker sockets.
The author evaluates the menu system, power output (50 W on 4/6/2 m, 40 W on 70 cm), memory channel handling (999 channels), and the programming software, highlighting the need for a special RJ45‑to‑USB lead and quirks such as the missing 4 m entry in the default VFO tabs. Additional observations include fan speed settings, audio performance, and a few firmware bugs.
