An open-source custom firmware for the Quansheng UV-K5/K6/5R handheld radio, merging OneOfEleven's custom firmware with fagci's spectrum analyzer mod plus additional enhancements. It adds features like SSB demodulation, AM reception fix, fast scanning, and configurable buttons.
Use cases
- unlock SSB reception on a Quansheng UV-K5 handheld radio
- improve AM reception quality on the UV-K5
- add a spectrum analyzer to a UV-K5 radio
- customize button functions and menus on a UV-K5
- get better battery percentage and voltage display on the radio
- flash custom firmware onto a Quansheng UV-K5/K6/5R
When to choose
- you own a Quansheng UV-K5/K6/5R and want enhanced features beyond stock firmware
- you want SSB demodulation or a spectrum analyzer on a cheap handheld radio
- you want an actively maintained community firmware with a detailed manual and wiki
When to avoid
- you own a different radio model - this firmware is specific to the Quansheng UV-K5 family
- you cannot risk bricking your radio, as flashing carries real risk
- you need professional-grade transceiver performance, which the hardware itself limits
