Conclusions

I am not going to recommend this radio simply because there are other radios from this same manufacturer that I like better. It is not a bad radio, and the signal coming out is pretty good, as is the audio. I just think the UV3D is a better radio for the money.

However, if you like the radio and want one new, you will certainly get a radio that performs well even if a little overpriced. If you pick one up used, then it becomes a better value.

Would I recommend this radio? No. Not because it is necessarily bad, because actually it is a pretty good radio. The problem is the Wouxun KG-UVD1P is just too much money for what you get. There are much better value propositions out there. Heck, some of the new super-cheap Baofeng radios have improved menu structures and GPS for less than half of what this radio costs.

If you got one as a present or found a great deal on a used one, awesome! Use it and enjoy. You might not want to spend your hard-earned cash on it though.
