In addition to our special V3 of this radio shipping with a huge 3300 mAh battery (in place of the normal 2000 mAh battery), the KG-UV9D+ model radio now offers Wouxun's excellent two step cross-band repeat function, the ability to completely turn off both the large color display and the flickering transmit/receive indicator light (for enhanced OPSEC and decreasing battery drain), plus the ability to transmit from 136-174 MHz on VHF and 400-520 MHz on UHF (many competitor's older V1 and V2 models are factory locked to only transmit on the U.S. amateur radio bands (144-148 and 430-450 MHz).

• 108-136 MHZ AM (for U.S. FAA / Pilot Conversations)
• 230-250 MHz FM
