Wouxun KG 689 Small Look

[zebby1974]

I have one of these and managed to end up with it in chinese voice mode.. How do I get it back to English?

Also when I put it to radio it seems to pick nothing up at all and just beeps if I press the UP button..?

and lastly I am trying to program in UHF freq but it seems to be stuck in VHF mode? and I can't see in the manula how to change it

Any help would be much appreciated.

@zebby1974 I have a VHF model, there are two models and the only way to differentiate is by turning them on and trying it. The one in the video must be UHF, I think there's another one that is both, but that's the plus edition.

@zebby1974 Oh yeah, or you can look under the battery, it's on a label there too.
