IP54 Weather Resistant

Snow, rain, or shine you can feel free to use your UV-5X3 radio no matter what the weather conditions are. The UV-5X3 is weather resistant and splash proof.

Unmatched Tri-Band Versatility

A step above the average dual-band radios, the UV-5X3 brings the game-changing advantage of tri-band functionality. It operates on VHF, 1.25M, and UHF frequencies, offering an extended range of communication possibilities. This broader spectrum allows you to connect over different frequency bands, ensuring clear and robust signals in a variety of scenarios. Whether you're coordinating with a team during emergency responses, tuning into local weather stations, or simply keeping in touch with fellow amateur enthusiasts, the UV-5X3's tri-band versatility ensures reliable and flexible communication. This is not just a feature; it's a significant upgrade that empowers you to communicate more efficiently and effectively.

BTECH BL-5 USB-C Charging

The BL-5 battery now includes USB-C charging, providing users with greater flexibility and convenience in powering their devices. With this feature, you can charge the battery directly using a USB-C cable, or you can still use the CH-5 desktop charger if you prefer.

The USB-C charging feature makes it easy to charge your BL-5 battery on the go, using a power bank or a laptop with a USB-C port. This means you no longer have to rely on the CH-5 desktop charger, which may not always be available or convenient to use.

Revolutionary Remote Capabilities

The BTECH UV-5X3 sets itself apart with a set of remote functions designed to give you total control over your communication devices, even at a distance. With the Stun and Kill functions, you can remotely disable a radio - a crucial feature in managing potential security situations. Need to re-enable a stunned radio? The Revive function brings it back to life with a simple command.

Moreover, the Inspect function adds another layer of control to your operations. By sending a simple command, you can confirm if a radio is within your range as it replies with a confirmation tone. Not only does this facilitate seamless coordination, but it also assists in ensuring all your team members are within communication boundaries.

Finally, the Monitor function can be remotely activated to silently monitor the environment around the radio. This feature is especially beneficial in situations where stealth or silent observation is necessary.

Display Synchronization

An exciting, new feature on the UV‑5X3 takes full advantage of the LCD's dual line display. In the past the dual display allowed you to monitor two different frequencies at once. Unfortunately, for user's that only wanted to monitor a single channel, the secondary line was of no use... until the UV‑5X3!

The UV‑5X3 allows users, who want to display the most information at once, to synchronize the display. This allows the LCD to show both the channel's frequency and channel name simultaneously. Display synchronization allows the user to maximize the available information seen at a glance!

Modify the Scanning List

A brand new menu allows for one of the biggest conveniences while scanning: Modifying the Scanning List!

Before the UV‑5X3, you couldn't manage the channel scan list without a computer. The brand new menu in the UV‑5X3 allows you to easily add and remove channels from the scanning list. Have a nuicanse channel that you want removed from the scan list? You no longer need to go home to a computer to remove it: A simple menu allows you modify your channel scan list without a computer

Channel Mode Modifications

The UV‑5X3 comes out of the rut that all other UV‑5 series radios are stuck in. The UV‑5X3, built with the amateur radio operator in mind, allows channel modifications on-the-fly.

Previously and on other current UV‑5 models, you were forced to delete a channel and then recreate it from scratch if you wanted to alter any settings.

The UV‑5X3 allows common edits to the channels: Such as adding, changing, or removing the privacy tones (CTCSS & DCS); or changing the power level. You no longer have to delete and recreate the channel over simple channel modifications.

Scan a Frequency Range

Scanning in frequency mode, just became practical! Exclusively on the BTECH UV‑5X3: You are able to scan through a specific frequency range.

Scanning frequencies before the UV‑5X3 required the user to scan the full frequency band they were using. This was not practical if you only wanted to watch for activity on a particular section of the band (such as only 222-225MHz in the above pictured example). The UV‑5X3 will scan at the frequency step you select in menu, which allows you to scan by increments from 2.5 to 50KHz. You can now scan through a fine tuned portion of the receiving band without having to wait and scan the whole band!
