The RUYAGE UV6D 6 band VHF/UHF analog walkie talkie with GPS combines three manufacturer-listed transmit ranges with segmented wideband reception from 50–560 MHz. It features 999 programmable channel memories, local GPS location display, AM aviation-band reception, FM broadcast radio, wireless frequency copy, dual watch, VOX and USB Type-C charging.

The UV6D communicates directly with compatible analog radios and does not require cellular service, WiFi, a SIM card, Zello or a monthly communication plan. The built-in GPS function can display the radio's location information when sufficient satellite signals are available.

Available transmit frequencies and permitted power levels depend on the regional version, programming, equipment authorization, user licence and local regulations. Receiving or programming coverage does not authorize transmission across every listed frequency.

RUYAGE UV6D Key Features

6 Band Transmit and Receive Coverage

The RUYAGE UV6D provides manufacturer-listed transmit and receive capability across three frequency ranges:

• 136–173.975 MHz
• 350–399.975 MHz
• 400–469.975 MHz

This makes the UV6D more accurately described as a 6 band analog handheld radio. It should not be advertised as transmitting continuously from 136–560 MHz because parts of that range are listed as receive-only.

Actual transmit availability may be restricted by regional firmware, programming, certification and local spectrum regulations. Large portions of the listed ranges are not available for general or unlicensed transmission.

50–560 MHz Segmented Wideband Reception

In addition to the three listed transmit ranges, the UV6D provides broad segmented reception across multiple VHF and UHF frequency ranges.

• 50–76 MHz reception
• 65–108 MHz FM broadcast reception
• 108–136 MHz AM aviation-band reception
• 136–173.975 MHz transmit and receive
• 174–349.975 MHz receive-only coverage
• 350–399.975 MHz transmit and receive
• 400–469.975 MHz transmit and receive
• 470–560 MHz receive-only coverage

Reception performance depends on frequency, modulation, antenna, signal strength, terrain, interference and regional firmware. Wideband reception does not mean that every signal within the coverage range can be received equally well.

Built-In GPS Location Display

The built-in GPS receiver allows users to view the radio's current location information directly from the UV6D menu.

To access the listed GPS function: Menu → GPS System → Location Information → Open.

• Local GPS coordinate display
• No cellular network required for satellite positioning
• Useful for outdoor location awareness
• Location information displayed directly on the radio

GPS reception generally works best outdoors with a clear view of the sky. Buildings, terrain, weather, antenna position and satellite availability can affect acquisition time and accuracy.

The supplied specifications do not confirm remote GPS tracking, automatic position transmission, team-location sharing or location reporting to an app. The GPS function should therefore be advertised as GPS location viewing, not as real-time GPS tracking.

999 Programmable Channel Memories

Store and organize up to 999 channel memories for compatible frequencies, signaling settings and operating configurations.

• 999 channel memory capacity
• Frequency, channel and channel-name display modes
• Channel scanning and storage
• Channel addition and deletion
• Flexible organization for radio users and teams

The 999-channel capacity describes the number of memory positions in the radio. It does not mean that 999 frequencies are automatically licensed or authorized for transmission.

AM Airband Receive-Only Function

The UV6D supports AM aviation-band reception from 108–136 MHz, allowing users to receive compatible civil aviation communications where monitoring is legally permitted.

• 108–136 MHz AM reception
• Receive-only aviation-band function
• Compatible aviation communication monitoring
• No cellular or internet connection required

The airband feature is receive-only. Never transmit on aviation frequencies, and always comply with the reception and monitoring laws applicable in your location.

65–108 MHz FM Broadcast Radio

The built-in FM receiver provides access to compatible FM broadcast stations within the listed 65–108 MHz coverage range.

FM reception depends on local broadcast availability, antenna position, terrain, interference and regional frequency allocation.

Wireless Frequency Copy

The wireless frequency-copy function helps detect compatible analog frequency and signaling settings from a nearby radio, making supported configuration faster and more convenient.

• Compatible analog frequency detection
• Supported tone and signaling detection
• Convenient radio-to-radio setup
• No computer required for supported copying functions

Successful copying depends on signal strength, modulation, bandwidth, signaling and radio compatibility. Copying a detected frequency does not authorize transmission on that frequency.

Wireless Radio Replication

The UV6D includes manufacturer-listed wireless replication compatibility with supported UV3D radios. This can help copy selected programming settings without configuring every compatible radio individually.

Compatibility may depend on hardware version, firmware and programming. Because the UV3D and UV6D have different channel capacities and functions, do not assume that every setting can be transferred between them.

Listed Cross-Band Communication Mode

The UV6D includes a manufacturer-listed cross-band transmit and receive mode for compatible and properly programmed configurations.

Exact operation depends on firmware, selected bands and menu settings. This function should not be described as an automatic cross-band repeater unless the official manual confirms that the radio automatically receives a signal on one band and retransmits it on another.

Dual Display and Dual Watch

The large LCD screen can display two configured frequencies or channels, while the dual-watch function helps monitor activity across two selected settings.

• Dual frequency or channel display
• Dual-watch monitoring
• Frequency, channel and channel-name modes
• Automatic backlight control
• Voice prompts and keypad lock

Dual watch normally alternates monitoring between two configured settings. It should not be described as playing two received audio signals simultaneously unless that behavior is confirmed by the applicable manual.

VOX and Analog Signaling Functions

The UV6D provides multiple analog signaling and operating functions for compatible radio systems.

• VOX voice-operated transmission
• CTCSS and DCS signaling
• DTMF tone support
• 1750Hz call tone
• Adjustable squelch
• Wide and narrow bandwidth selection
• Frequency and channel mode switching
• Offset-frequency settings

CTCSS and DCS can help filter unwanted received audio, but they do not encrypt a transmission or prevent other compatible radios from receiving it.

PC Programmable Settings

The RUYAGE UV6D supports PC programming for managing compatible channels, frequencies and radio settings.

• Channel and frequency configuration
• CTCSS and DCS settings
• Wide and narrow bandwidth selection
• Scan and busy-channel settings
• Custom channel organization

Programming software and cable compatibility may vary by hardware version. Do not advertise full CHIRP compatibility unless it has been verified for the exact RUYAGE UV6D hardware and firmware version being sold.

Local Alarm and Work-Alone Functions

The UV6D includes manufacturer-listed automatic and manual alert options, local or remote alarm settings and a work-alone function.

• Automatic and manual radio alert
• Manufacturer-listed local or remote alarm function
• Work-alone timer function
• Busy channel lock
• Transmission time-out timer
• Keypad lock

Exact alarm behavior depends on radio programming and compatibility. These functions do not contact emergency services, transmit a GPS location to a rescue center or replace a certified lone-worker or life-safety system.

1600mAh Rechargeable Battery

The included 1600mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery supports portable everyday operation.

• 1600mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery
• USB Type-C charging support
• Desktop charging-base support
• Removable battery design

Actual operating and standby time depends on transmit power, battery age, GPS use, scanning, display use, audio volume, temperature and the amount of time spent transmitting.
