Receive LO leakage from a #Quansheng #UVK5 set to dual watch.
As the clocks are divided down to get the exact LO, the two leaking tones are quite close to each other. Unlike 1200MHz and 145.000MHz.

Test setup for measuring the RF output direct from the #BK4819 chip used in the #Quansheng #UVK5 radio.
It is soldered to the transmit output pin via the stock DC blocking cap, suspected to be 100pF.
Picked up a $30.00 Anysecu UV-K5 it arrived from China a whole 5 or 6 days ahead of time.....
And it's both better, and worse then I thought it would be.
With some interesting features, like NOAA channels, and airband - And only a few dollars more then a UV-5R - this could be the new beginner radio to give to new hams. #baofeng #UV5R #UVK5 #Anysecu #hamradio #ham #radio
