No, as soon as you press the PTT the VHF TX would come on, and the UHF RCV
would shut off.  When you release the PTT UHF RCV comes back on.  I just
checked it with mine.

The radio hears well, but is not full duplex.  It will work with the Arrow
(again not full duplex).  The antenna connector is male SMA on the radio.

has anyone any experience of using the Wouxon KG-UVD1P on AO-51 and the FM
birds?

I have looked at eham etc and it seems to be a single vfo with channel watch
on both V and U; I'm not sure if a carrier on the uhf downlink would just
switch the vfo to uhf listen and transmit, ie you could never tx on V if the
carrier is on U...

can someone confirm that it works/does not work with an Arrow, please?

But "cheap as chips", and could be quite interesting?
