How To Program Puxing Px 888k

Rating:2012-12-30GoodTime Owned: 6 to 12 months.Hi,I made several tests on this radio, being a 'beta tester.' The radio responds very well and the tests were tested with a motorola GP380,the radio have selective 5-Tone, DTMF and function msk, has the chance 'to read through traffic on the display indicating the received selective, has the answer back and bell ring when it receives a selective call.has many functions and its battery has a long life by using it in high-power.my videos are on youtube under the heading IZ7GLLfor example buy from www.409shop.com. Rating:2012-12-17GREAT,CHEAP 2 BANDER HTTime Owned: 3 to 6 months.I picked up one of these HT's and in less then a half hour I was plugging in repeaters like a pro.I like it better then my Wouxun.I did order the 1,800 mil battery for it and the speaker MIC was only $10.00 and it works in the Wouxun also.Got mine from around $100.00 you can get a new ham on the air.The PX888K is very light and a joy to carry around.Good reports.I gave it a 5+ for the money and how well it worksBOB AF2Q. Rating:2012-09-02PX-888k my impressionsTime Owned: 0 to 3 months.OK, I have 3 px-888k units. I bought a pair to test the ANI and selective calling, which you need two to test.One of them developed a distinct 'clicking' sound when it was in dual displa mode after a transmission.

Note: There is also the Puxing PX-508 which is the FM only version with no dPMR. Make sure to get the version with the D on the end if you want dPMR. The PX-558D seems to be very similar if not the same as the PX-508D. Known to work with other dPMR radios using the AMBE+2C vocoder.

It goes away after a few seconds. It appears to be an issue somewhere in the squelch circuit in dual watch mode. The third unit i ordered as a replacement, was fine.All the radios do 'click' one time when the squelch closes though.This Radio is FCC certified for Part 90. FCC ID: AUJPXDZ888K001The radio is easier to program than a lot of Chinese radios. This one lets you add and delete scan channels, unlike many Chinese radios.This radio has a custom power on message that can be programmed via software.the selective calling (5tone, DTMF, MSK) settings are enabled by software also.Receive audio is loud and clear. Transmit audio is also strong and clear, but tends to lean on the bassy side.

The microphone is not too hot. A lot of hams see this is a drawback; but it help eliminate background noise, and is communications grade as most 'commercial use' radios are.The supplied antenna is good enough for all HT uses. It is as effective as the Wouxun kg-uvd series which is generally regarded as having pretty good stock antennas.The scan function is annoyingly slow.

Perhaps the slowest I have ever used. Turning off the dual watch/dual display speeds it up a bit.Upper and lower vfos can be selected by a single keypress. Channel, frequency, and single display mode are easily selected from a single key.

In single vfo mode, the frequency and channel number/alpha tag are displayed in the 2 line display. This utilizes both line instead of placing 'filler characters' in the second line. The display is seven characters, instead of the six, used my many Chi-rigs.This radio is narrow band capable and is actually made to properly have the narrow passband on receive. 2.5 kHz spacing is not selectable by the keypar or the software, HOWEVER, narrow band frequencies CAN be directly programmed into the radio by software. I did use some of the frequencies that others have reported 'won't go' into radios without 2.5 khz spacing; but in the Puxing they went fine and sounded fine. Whether or not they are actually on frequency is a matter for those who have frequency counters.This radio has a 'compander' function.

Unlike what others indicate, this is NOT a speech processor or a mike gain. This function takes and compresses audio input and expands it to full fidelity on a receiving radio also equipped with a compander. This is designed for narrow band use that allows an audio signal to be compressed into a narrow-band signal to preserve fidelity that is otherwise lost. This is a common complaint in non-companded narrow band radios.The selective calling system uses dtmf 5tone and an MSK type signaling. You can select a call list and use these functions to call specific radios. The called radio can also 'ring back' to indicate 'connection'.

These can also be used as a 'caller ID' which is displayed on the screen of each radio. While it may have limited functions for Amateur radio, it is still pretty cool.All in all a great radio. I now use them in place of my Wouxun kg-uvds.-Earlier 4-star review posted by KD8DVR on 2012-07-17Update on the 'clicking sound' It appears to be a radio malfunction. I got radios mixed up leading me to believe both radios had it. I have a defective radio. The sound is not there on the 'good' radio.

It appears to be a defect in the squelch function. I suppose this can go into the record as a possible flaw to look for. This occurs in dual watch mode only, not single frequency.

It also interferes with selective calling operation. Still receives a 4 due to the slow scan.PLEASE READ.PRODUCT REVIEWS TERMS & CONDITIONS-NOTES.

To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued.

Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules.

We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood).

Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).This is a large and very visible forum.

We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this. I bought a Puxing PX UV973 dual band HT, and it's great, but I can't seem to find any programming software for it.

I have the cable, and I also have 4 other Chinese HT's that I found software for but no luck on this new Puxing.Anyone know where I might find the programming software for this Puxing PX UV973 dual band radio? I have tried the PX 888K software, but it doesnt want to read from the radio, I get an error when i try that one. I don't think Chirp supports this model either I only see 2 Puxings supported with Chirp one is a UHF the other is a model 777 Puxing.Any ideas where I can find the program for this model?Thanks in advance.

I'm blown away with the front end on these. It really shines. I keyed up my Kenwood NX-700 fed into an Ed Fong J-Pole about 5 feet away, and could hear myself through the repeater I was working! My Motorola Jedi's (MTS2000 and MT2000's) get wiped out on the same frequency, and they are tuned and aligned well.Even with the 1200mah battery, I get great battery life.

I will check out that antenna you mentioned.I think this is a 'sleeper' Chinese radio, everyone reaches for the UV-5R's, but this radio is far and above better in quality and performance, and well worth the slightly higher price.

These Puxing's are 'sleepers' I bought a brand new Kenwood TH F6A, and it's OK but with all the extra stuff they packed into that small radio it suffers all sorts of interference, and the Puxing is rock solid and never gets bothered if I set it near my laptop. The Kenwood on the other hand hisses, and pops whenever it's close to the computer or even when I've walked past the microwave while it's running the Kenwood squelch open and you mometarily hear the noise. Not so on either of the Puxing's I have. I agree with you on those Baofeng's I have 2 of them, a UV B5 and UV 5R and I'm trying to unload them both. Most of the hams are on the Baofeng train and they do a good job for the price but for a few bucks more you can get this full duplexing, cross band repeat, scramble mode, volume adjustment for each band, and a lot more, plus the best of all the front end on the Puxing is absolutely the best I have seen on any of the 6 Chinese radios I own.

Not to mention the Puxing, unlike 99 percent of ALL available 'big three' ham radios, actually do narrowband receive properly, including the 'splinter' channels (e.g. 155.8225) which, for those places where public safety haven't made the switch to digital/700/800 and are on those frequencies, you can monitor them with a receiver that actually tunes the proper synthesizer steps and proper IF bandwidth.Got the opportunity to test mine tonight at the hospital where I work.

The hospital sits on a hill and from the parking lot, I can hear one agency that is about 60 miles away (who is on those new narrowband splinters channels) clearly and as good as on my XTS3000, and no intermod from nearby garbage.About the only room for improvement I can see is the standard battery, at only 1200mah, it goes down fast IF you transmit on high power. On low power it lasts all day, and RX it gave me two solid days of 10+ hours of monitoring, which means the thing does a pretty decent job of managing battery power.A keeper for sure.

When you use the software to program the PX UV973 you can click on 'Optional Features' and set an entire page of options, and it allows you to select the step size for the VHF, and UHF VFO. The choices are 2.5, 5, 6.25, 10, 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 k. Once you have selected the step for both VHF, and UHF and save your channels to the radio, each time you turn the VFO knob the frequency will change by the step you have selected in the software. On the MENU of the radio those steps do not show up only the standard steps appear, but when you dial that VFO it steps in whatever step you chose in the software.
