Technician's Take: Why use a Programming Cable?
"While the UV-K6 can be programmed via the keypad, using the included USB cable and software makes the process significantly faster. You can name your channels (e.g., 'SECURITY', 'CAMPING'), easily organize frequency lists, and save backups of your configuration. This is essential if you manage multiple radios or have a large list of local repeaters."
