Good solid radio review by FredJara on 6/9/2024

I have had a UV6 for years. Used it and abused it until last week when I lost it. I think I put it on the rim of the bed of my truck and drove off without retrieving it. At any rate, after well over 15 years, it was gone. I was super glad Buy Two Way Radios had them in stock. It is now programmed with my school's frequencies and I'm once again good to go.
Good radio - except the channel dial review by RadioReady on 9/7/2021

Good radio except the channel dial up top changes channels very easily on accident. Even when keypad is locked it is easy for channel to be changed when bumped or shifted in your pocket or on chest mount.
I have read through the manual but haven’t found any way to stop this.

Works as expected review by KE6FE on 4/28/2016

This radio replaces a Yaesu Vertex VX-10 (2000 vintage), The TX and RX performance are about the same. The "high gain" antenna which came with it is not bad, but a 1/4 dipole is much better for TX. The keys from manual programming are useful to the expert, but are too easily accidentally pressed, throwing the radio into unexpected modes. Get the programming cable to program in your frequencies etc. using a computer. Programming it from the keyboard is possible, but frustrating. The manual is detailed, but the English translation is poor.
A strong well built radio. Recommend It review by Wild Bill on 11/30/2014

I have had this for several months. I have used it on several searches and at the Fairgrounds and the Animal Disaster Response Team. It performs very well and is light to carry. Used with a speaker mic or an earbud mic it is great in noisy situations. This replaced a KG-UVD1P only because the 1P only had 5.0 khz steps. The D6P has 2.5 khz steps. The one design change that I don't like is when the key lock is on it doesn't lock the Channel selection knob. On the D1P it did. I solved this by removing the knob and just using the shaft.
