Larger Case Better Feel. I have large hands. Larger Keypad Buttons More positive Keypad Better feel, meant for bigger fingers Standard Keypad Zero at the bottom where it belongs Higher Output (Bench Tested with Telewave 44A) VHF Low: 2.5 Watts High: 5.3 Watts UHF Low: 1.4 Watts High: 3.9 Watts Software CHIRP programming compatible OEM converts to English with toolbar dropdown Better RX audio quality Mellower sound Larger speaker in larger case Better TX audio quality Better mid-level audio frequencies (punchier sound) Probably also be due to larger case Dual PTT Top of PTT selects TX (A). Bottom of PTT selects (B). You can still change from RX (A) to (B) using the EXIT/AB key. Battery - 1800 mAH Note: Since day one, UV-82 batteries have been labeled 2800 mAH. This was a confirmed mislabeling from Baofeng factory. Accessories Most accessories are interchangeable with UV-5R. i.e. antenna, speaker/microphone, programming cables Battery and Charger are not. New Function, Menu (40) A/B-BP Display A/B BEEP tone. A tone can be added to the end of Received signal.
