New “X” (Extra) Features

Priority Channel Quick-Jump: LP BAND to instantly switch to your Priority Channel (set with [MENU 32_PRI-CH | 001–999]) on the A receiver, even while scanning. The function will halt whatever is happening on the A receiver (except while in the Function MENU), leaving the FM Radio and B receiver scanning alone. This is handy for setting a favorite “home repeater or channel,” emergency EmComm or CALL Channel (default), NOAA WX, or local Public Safety channel.
Dark Display Modes: Use [MENU 62_SCN-MD] to set 1 of 4 color screen modes with 3 new “dark” backgrounds:
Classic: Traditional Blue Text on Blue-White background.
Covert: Dark Red on Black background for minimal exposure.
Day 1: Bright Yellow on Black background for highest contrast.
Day 2: Blue-White on Black background for high contrast.

Note: You can reduce the backlight level [MENU 27_ABR-LV | 01–05] for minimal display light output (most useful for the Covert setting).

TIP: You can use free WOUXUN Customer Programming Software to change the “BetterSafeRadio” Personal Message to your own Call Sign, EmComm Unit #
or Amateur Radio Club name! (16 alpha-numeric characters max.)
Programming via Computer
You can program all channel data and radio menu settings on your KG-UV9PX via computer with the free WOUXUN Customer Programming Software (CPS) and the Wouxun “Red” USB Programming Cable & driver software, available at BetterSafeRadio.com/UV9PX. For more editing features, the RT Systems Advanced Programming Software & USB Cable Kit, available at the link above, can also be used (except for new Dark Display Modes, which can be set from radio’s MENU).
TIP: Avoid operating radio (and never TX) while in charger, to avoid damage. Wouxun-KG-UV9PX-HAM-Two-Way-Radio-Transceiver-and-Scanner-
FIG-1

Basic Operation

Key Presses: The PF2 & PF3 side-keys and several front panel keypad keys allow short and long presses (see below) to access primary and secondary functions (such as ✱-SCAN for the Reverse/Scan functions — see the PF / Programmable Function Keys & Keypad Shortcuts sections to the right).
A quick momentary press or “Short-Press” (SP) activates the primary key function. A “Long-Press” (LP) involves holding down a key for about 2 seconds to activate the secondary key function.
Function Menu: Press the MENU key to enter the Function Menu. Use the Channel Knob, ▲▼ or 1–9 keys to select a function. Press MENU again to Edit the selected function. Use the same controls to select or enter a value, then press MENU again to write any changes. Press EXIT to exit the function Menu or to abort the current Menu operation without saving changes for the currently selected function, or wait for the MENU to time-out (about 12 sec.).
Display Modes: Long-Press TDR|V/M to cycle through all 4 Display Modes:
NAME (default): Displays the stored Alpha-8 Name (if any) for the current memory channel.
FREQ-VFO (Variable Frequency Oscillator): For direct frequency tuning/input, scanning frequencies, or programming new channels. Acts like a traditional “digital” radio tuner.
CH: Displays the Number for the current memory channel.
CHFREQ: Displays the frequency stored for the current memory channel, with the channel # to the right (in small text).
TIP: You can hold down the ▲▼ keys or use the Channel Knob to quickly scroll through channels, frequencies, or MENU functions/values.
TIP: You can use the EXIT key as a backspace key while entering a frequency in the FREQ-VFO Display Mode.

Basic Operation (continued)

Receiving (RX): Turn the radio on by rotating the On/Oﬀ/Volume Knob clockwise. Use the Channel Knob, ▲▼ or 1–9 keys to select the desired channel. Adjust the Volume Knob as desired.
Main: Toggle the active MAIN receiver with the BAND key.
Single/True Dual Receive: Toggle Single or True Dual Receive Modes with the TDR|V/M key.
Sub-Receiver Muting: You can choose if you want audio on the Sub-Receiver (opposite of MAIN) muted (while in TDR mode) when a signal is received (even while scanning), or when you transmit on the MAIN receiver, or both. Use [MENU 60_S-MUTE | ALL, OFF, RX–MUTE, TX–MUTE,
R/T–MUTE] to toggle.
You can set RX CTCSS codes or DCS tones (sometimes referred to as “PL Tones” or “Privacy/Quiet Tones”) with [MENU 16_Rx–CTC] or [MENU 18_Rx–DCS] to mute the receiver unless a signal contains the desired tone/code.
You can set the SQUELCH with [MENU 08_SQL–LE | 0–9] to mute the speaker for background noise or signals below the set level. A squelch level of 5 is usually a good starting point.
Note: The top A Receiver can tune/scan all 7 bands available. The B Receiver covers only the normal dual-band range (136–174.9975 & 400–512.9975 MHz).
Transmitting (TX): Choose the desired channel or frequency. SP PF3 Monitor to conﬁrm channel is not in use, then again to mute.
Hold the radio upright a few inches from your mouth with the display facing you or at a slight angle.
Press & hold the PTT key, pause for about one second, then speak at a normal, consistent volume. Release the PTT key to stop transmitting. The radio will immediately return to receiving.
Note: Because there are two receivers, Priority Scan is not active while the normal Scan Mode is active. Set one receiver to your Priority Channel while scanning on the other receiver to never miss Priority Channel activity.
TIP: Remove battery from radio if storing for more than 1 month, with 60% chg.

Transmitting (continued):

You can set TX CTCSS codes or DCS tones with [MENU 17_Tx–CTC] or [MENU 19_Tx–DCS] to transmit these sub-audible signals to other stations or to access repeaters.
You can transmit a ROGER BEEP (tone) at the beginning or end of your transmission (or both) with [MENU 15_ROGER]. The EOT (End Of TX) setting is most commonly used so other stations know when your transmission is “OVER” (not often used on Ham bands and typically avoided on repeaters).
You can set the BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT with [MENU
18_BCL] to inhibit accidentally transmitting when there’s an active signal detected (useful when RX DCS or CTCSS is set).
See orig. KG-UV9P manual PDF for Cross-Band Repeater use.
FM Radio: The Commercial FM Radio feature tunes from 76 to 108 MHz in 100 kHz steps. It oﬀers an IN FRQ VFO Mode with
SE Scanning, Memory SAVE, and Memory CALL functions with 20 dedicated memories. When operating the FM Radio, the MAIN & Sub-Receiver (if in TDR Mode) will be “watching” for active signals and will mute the FM Radio and play the MAIN or Sub-Receiver audio instead. When the signal ceases, the KG- UV9PX will resume playing the current FM Radio station, until the feature is turned oﬀ.
Enter the FM Radio feature with SP PF2. Do the same to exit.
Toggle between IN FRQ/SAVE/CALL modes with
SP #-LOCK.
Press the ✱-SCAN key to scan for an active FM Radio station.
Use the 1–9 keys or Channel Knob to enter/select a frequency or memory channel in IN FRQ/CALL modes, then press the MENU key to commit the entry/selection.
Adding New or Copying Existing Memory Channels: You can add new or copy existing simplex or repeater TX/RX channels with the keypad, or add RX-Only Scanner channels (outside of the Ham bands), as desired.
New Simplex, Repeater or Scanner Channels:
Switch to the FREQ-VFO Display Mode (see above).
Use the Channel Knob, ▲▼ or 1–9 keys to select/enter desired frequency.
Set any other desired parameters in the Function Menu.
Write the frequency to a channel using [MENU 30_MEM-CH | 001–999]. New/unused channels will display in alternate color.  (See Basic Operation – Function Menu instructions.)
Copy Existing Simplex/Repeater/Scanner Channels:
Switch to the CH, CHFREQ or NAME Display Mode.
Use the Channel Knob, ▲▼ or 1–9 keys to select/enter desired channel to copy.
Write the channel to a new memory using [MENU 30_MEM-CH]. New/unused channels will display in alternate color. Repeater settings will be retained, including the Oﬀset Freq. & Direction.
Switch to CH, CHFREQ or NAME Display Mode and use the Function Menu to set any desired parameters, such as W/N, TXP, SFT-D, BCL, Rx-CTC/DCS, Tx-CTC/DCS, CH-NAME, or SCAN-ADD, etc., to customize the new channel.
While setting a Channel Name with [MENU 29_CH–NAME], use the Channel Knob, ▲▼ or 1–9 keys to select/enter a character/number, #-LOCK to accept and move forward, and EXIT to move back. When done, press MENU to write the new name, or LP EXIT to abort without writing.

Note: Not all Menu Functions can be set in all Display Modes.
Example: [MENU 48_SCN–ADD] is not available in FREQ-VFO Mode  and SFT-D & OFFSET are only available in FREQ-VFO Mode.
TIP: Don’t submerge or intentionally soak radio with any liquid (or gel).
