I had minimal use of two Motoralas, but I never got the license. So when I got a better HT, my conscience started bothering me. I read that the fee was going to $35, but the Red Tape went on forever. So I paid the full $70 about 10 days before the fee dropped. I guess it was a contribution!

A great radio, but a pair of them is pricey. A lesser HT will work well.

The RT Systems software will only work with the RT Systems cable. If you bought the Wouxun cable, then you'll need to use the Wouxun software.

Click the "Downloads" tab.
I installed the software and it works! The look and feel is old school, but I was able to get configured enough to get into a local repeater. Thanks for the help.

I have the Wouxun cable (X001FDQIVH). I'll try the link you posted. Thanks.

I use the following software and cable to program radio as it much more user friendly... wish it was in Mac OS. https://www.rtsystemsinc.com/KG-935G_c_2138.html
I just got my KG-935G today. I have the Programming Cable, so I really want to be able to use my desktop to program the radio. I checked out the link in your post and it loos like a $25.00 download. Is that really what I need? Seems like a lot of $$ right after a major (for me) purchase! Thanks!
KG-UV9P?

I recently bought a Wouxon KG-UV9P. A review:
First, I like this radio, but I had intended to purchase the KG-UV8H. I wanted the KG-UV8H because it is so like the KG-935G that I already have for GMRS. I was impressed with the build quality of the 935G. I wanted to be able to share batteries and chargers, etc. They are not compatible with the UV9P.
The KG-UV9P is just not up to the quality of the 935G. Some examples: 1) The TINY screw that attaches the belt clip snapped off when I tried to fasten the clip. Also, the clip attaches to the battery, not the radio. 2) The cover for the computer cord (on the side) is flimsy and does not seem like it will be as protective as the one on the 935G. To make it worse, the TINY screw that holds it down is not 'captured'. So any time you need to remove the cover, there is a good chance of losing the screw. 3) The screen is difficult to see even impossible it you are outside. There is not provision for a back-light when in standby mode. It just goes black.
I still like this radio. A big plus is that it is CHIRP compatible. Even though the build quality is not what I expected, it is still solid. Keep in mind that I was looking for a radio similar to the KG-935G. I really intended to get the UV9P, but that was a shopping error on my part. If in doubt, go ahead and spend the extra $10.00 for the KG-UV8H, I wish I had.
