Sir, the Wouxun KG-1000G PLUS is a professional grade radio, not your cheaply produced consumer based radios which perform fine but lack the rugged quality and features you would only find in communication equipment designed to last in the real world. -WD40

I recently had a weird issue with my KG-1000G (after about two months of daily use) where the radio would not break squelch for UHF/GMRS reception...worked fine for listening in on local 2M repeaters but the only way to hear UHF was to put the radio into monitor mode (no squelch). So, I boxed it up and sent it off to BTWRadios. Then the new radios were out of stock...so I had to wait a few weeks. Last Friday, I received an email from them that my radio would ship back to me this past Monday but get this...They offered to send me the new Plus version at no additional cost. I replied, "of course!" Can't say enough good things about BTWR...great support, instant chat for q's and very responsive. I would not hesitate to purchase ANY radio gear from them. Cheers!

Ditto. Thanks to Randy I have a 1000G and 2 UV9GX Pro's (from the affiliate links below) sitting quietly in their pretty boxes. And a license. I haven't had a radio since my 1970's 19 channel CB. Technology has far outstripped my ability to assimilate it (I was the kid who could set up the VCR in the day) so I am certain I will never utilize these radios to their full extent, therefore I think I can resist the urge to upgrade to the 1000G+...... maybe. Anyway, not sure how this channel popped up on my feed but I do enjoy watching and maybe I'll learn a thing or three!

Thanks for all the info and links regarding this Radio! I would say the "OLD NON-PLUS" will be good for me since I bought 1 the day Randy had the video. I see no reason to spend the $$ to upgrade SO FAR. Keep in mind "people" I have several radios for all types of platforms. No huge benefit/difference in my case. It is a great improvement and "IF" I did not own the 1000 I would jump on it! The wooox-on is the Super bestest GMRS Radio that I own, and thanks to these video's I own a bunch (MIDLAND, WOUXUN, HYS SHTF, and several others. Thanks Randy, I am Radio RICH and CASH poor! I highly recommend that if you are worth your salt in GMRS, you need to own one of these "DUAL BAND" yes "DUAL BAND" WOUXUN 1000+ GMRS Radios! For "SOME PEOPLE" they can walk outside and let there bum knee tell them what the weather is!

I have this exact radio and wired right to my battery in my vehicle with a mellow wave Mount and 6db Gain Midland antenna and I'm getting low 60 down to 55 Watts on gmrs channels and 55 to 52 Watts easily on repeaters channels that's without a dummy load collecting the RF so it could be higher I don't know, using the same meter you have here. . Love my KG 1000G Plus now I just want a better higher power good portable gmrs radio too. Randy your the sole reason I got my gmrs license and I love it. I just wish more people on the road truckers included would switch to gmrs and why not channel gmrs channel 19 be the road channel as it seems 16 is used a lot offroad

Have a KG-1000G and it works great, looking to get a plus to put in my vehicles and pull the non-plus units to use as a repeater eventually. Would be nice if the rules allowed them to also license by rule the MURS band on the same HW (I have the MURS copy, the KG-1000M as well). Wouldn't need an external diplexer to use one fewer whip... Those diplxers for automotive use cost about as much as a whole radio by itself.

Great video NotaRubicon. I have a Yaesu FT991A "ham in a box" radio that I use a Yaesu M-70 desktop mic which has a 8 pin connector that with a converter cable can use an RJ-45 mic connector. The KG-1000G Plus can use the Wouxun MMO-005 desktop mic that also uses an RJ-45 connector. So here's the question: Could I use 2 Way RJ-45 box with an A/B channel selector and use my Yaesu M-70 desktop mic to transmit on my Wouxun KG-1000G Plus? ...this way I would only need one desktop mic. The reason I would like to be able to do this because I am C5/6 quadriplegic, and I have very little finger dexterity to be able to use the standard mic that comes with Wouxun. Keep the GMRS videos coming, your presentations are very informational and easy to follow. Thanks, OlyPenKid

Hi Randy, I bought the same radio and the same dummy load and the same SWR meters that you have and both tell me that I'm only pushing out at the very highest was 35 watts other wise it's 27-30 watts. I'm wondering if I am doing something wrong? I even bought the second SWR meter to check and make sure that wasn't the problem. Then I checked my GMRS 50x and only 30 watts on that radio too. So either I got two low wattage radios from two different companies or I got 2 bad SWR meters, oh and I made sure both radios were on High power. So I'm hoping that I'm just doing something wrong.

OK, I have watched your videos on the Wouxun 1000G Plus, The Wouxun new 20 watt mobile radio, and the KG-935G. I am looking for an all around radio for powerful monitoring of Ham frequencies as well as transmission on GMRS. You have never mentioned the new Quanshang UV-R 50-2 while everyone else on KZbin seems to be saying it is the best all-around SHTF radio. If I buy wither the 1000G plus or the 20 watt variant from Wouxun, would I need to get the Quanshang to monitor all other Ham bands too? The Quanshang is also set for Aviation frequency monitoring..

Love your videos learned an amazing amount of info. I just bought a kg1000g plus but on two way radios website and went to download the software but it isn't there. Do you know when they are going to make it available? it isn't on CHIRP either

I'm seeing that it's not showing in Safari, but it DOES show in Chrome and Firefox - try a different browser and see if that helps. (i've reported it to the owner of BuyTwoWayRadios)

CHIRP is Constantly.....and I mean Constantly like 3 times a month releasing a new version of Chirp.... they recently added a few Wouxan models but not yet the KG1000G...and I was told it is because they don't have/can't afford that model.....which I think Wouxan should send them as a loaner to create a driver or make it work with CHIRP.

Serious question. Do 12v plugs in cars max out at 50w? I have a Dometic fridge that pulls more than 50 watts, and it has a cigarette plug. I wonder if it’s possible to use a KG-1000 with a cigarette plug. Also, is there any official guideline that states what the range is per watt? It seems like some handhelds transmit nearly as far as these high power mobile radios. I understand range is totally dependent on obstructions, but I wonder what the max range would be under optimal conditions with a 50 watt radio.

Many 12volt cigarette lighter plugs are rated at 10 amps and that translates to 120 watts. But that's DC power at the 12 volt plug. Radios are rated for Transmit RF power out to the antenna not DC input power. Because transmitters are not perfectly effecient, the 12 volt DC input power required will be much more than the RF power out. I seem to recall that one of my 50 Watt radios required 13 amps DC input current and that translates to 156 Watts DC input power

I want to start 1st by saying that I am blind. I am looking to get a mobile radio with more so that hopefully I can reach a repeater. There is limited voice assistant on handhelds but I have not heard anything about voice assistant on mobile radios. Are you aware if any of the mobile radios you have reviewed have voice feedback. I love all of your videos by the way.

Can one scan multiple frequencies on one "side" while monitoring a single frequency on the other while in "dual watch" mode? That would be cool.

I’m curious as to the DC voltage you supplied to the radio. If it’s less than 13.8VDC then maybe that’s why the RF output wasn’t as advertised?

You have to use the software to do that. IIRC its in one of the system/display setting options.

1st thanks for all you're video's. Question. When I get my kg- 1000G plus. Do I need to. Tune my antenna like a CB AM radio? if yes what do I need and how do I do it. Like a SWR-Meter? Thank you
@TheNotaRubicon
@TheNotaRubicon Жыл бұрын
if you purchased a "GMRS antenna" then it does not need to be tuned. Otherwise it should at least be checked with an SWR meter to see if it needs to be tuned - and if its not specifically made for GMRS, then it probably will need to be.
