Airband Radio FIXED in the Quansheng UV-K5 (Listen to Aircraft)

Post author By admin
Post date November 6, 2023

The stock Quansheng firmware in the UV-K5 was a bit ordinary when it came to AM reception for Airband radio. There is now a mod for cleaning up the AM reception called "AM fix". This is what it sounds like, plus a few more tweaks.

The journey to space was real as St Peter-In-Thanet CE Primary School connected with a LIVE uplink to astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli aboard the International Space Station (NA1SS) using Ham Radio.

I sat down with Matt M0MLK and daughter Isabella to discuss how the contact went, questions asked and advice on how other schools can get involved.

I got this awesome little GPS receiver kit recently. You could use this in a heap of different applications.

It has Multi GNSS satellite constellation receiver support, comes with an active antenna with 2m of coax and a Serial to USB converter.

BG7TBL 10 MHz GPSDO 👉 https://youtu.be/EgF6-JbGUXA?si=jfrU4snen3Xg9zOO
*Note the BG7TBL doesn’t support GNSS support, or a few other functions that the QLG2 does*. Basic NMEA data and 1PPS is supported however.
