From the manufacturer

BTECH UV-50X3 X-Series Mobile – 50 Watt Tri Band Radio

The BTECH UV-50X3 is a tri-band radio with dual receivers. This enables simultaneous TX/TX within VHF/1.25M/UHF – as well as dual VHF/VHF and UHF/UHF receiver capabilities.

Large Flexible Remote Head and Easy-to-Read LCD

Adjustable Backlight Colors - Group Tones Supported

You can set the LCD Panel to 8 different colors.

The Display Size is 5.2″x1.6″ (130×40 mm). It uses a large dot matrix (264×64 dots) LCD display which ensures excellent visibility – night or day.

The UV-50X3 supports the most common Analog Tones. It supports CTCSS, DCS, and DTMF calling methods. Set-up your calling methods to call by group tones. Tone calling (private line) is required by most repeater applications and the UV-50X3 supports the latest standards.

Separate Front LCD Panel and DTMF Microphone

The UV-50X3 has a front panel that is separated from the main radio body. The panel is connected with standard Ethernet cable (15′ included) allowing the radio body to be remotely (or trunk) mounted. The Front Panel includes several mounting accessories including a suction cup mount.

The Front Panel has a built-in microphone which allows you to either use either the included DTMF Microphone or Panel Microphone. The Separate DTMF microphone can also be plugged directly into the Main Radio Body.

Rear of the Remote Head - Multiple Audio Options

The UV-50X3 includes separate volume adjustments for the independent VFOs. The UV-50X3 has dual speakers in the LCD panel – allowing stereo audio when one station is being received, but separate monaural speakers when both VFOs are active – which are controlled by the separate volume knobs. A third speaker is located on the radio body – which can be set as the only speaker, simultaneously be used with the panel speakers, or can be unused as well.

The UV-50X3 has both line-in and line-out jacks that allow you to output the radio audio to your own speaker system. The UV-50X3 allows you to listen to a line-in source while still monitoring your local nets.

The Front Panel includes several mounting accessories including a suction cup mount. (Uses a Ram Ball Mount)

Large Flexible Remote Head and Easy-to-Read LCD

1000 Memory Channels - High Power Output

The UV-50X3 has 1000 memory channels and 2 separate memory banks (The Right VFO has 500 channels, the left VFO has 500 channels). You can program both active (TX/RX Channels) and passive (RX Only) channels into the same Memory bank.

The UV-50X3 will transmit at 50 watts on both UHF and VHF; and it will transmit at 5 watts on 222-225MHz.

1000 Memory Channels - High Power Output

The UV-50X3 was includes a wide receiver that can receive beyond the transmitting frequencies on VHF/1.25M/UHF.

The UV-50X3 can also receive:

  • .5-1.71MHz (AM Radio)
  • 76-108MHz (FM Radio)
  • 108-135.995MHz (Air Band (AM))
  • 136-250MHz
  • 300-399.995MHz
  • 400-520MHz
Thorough Quality Control

Each UV-50X3 is individually tested during extreme temperatures (-22 F) to ensure every radio can meet advertised performance requirements.

The UV-50X3 can endure harsh environments and still perform in the most extreme situations.

Crossband Repeater

The UV-50X3 is more than just a radio – it can also act as a full cross-band repeater! Allowing you to connect or extend the range of your repeaters, handhelds, and mobiles. The Cross-Band repeater works in between VHF and UHF frequencies.
