[GRMS CB Radio.]

SorryI don't know that the Caps were on (BOLD). As for the rumor, then it's not true! Thanks for Charming in.

[GRMS CB Radio.]

I have been hearing talk about  CB Radios having GRMS in them soon. It looks like the CB world is also trying to get in on the GRMS business also. If so, I hope Ranger builds one like the Great 2950 DX Ranger built by Bill Good. Maybe a mod for the 2950 DX with GRMS. Now that would be cool. I could dig out my radio again with all the Mods. Bill Good done on my radio. Best RADIO I ever own. I love to talk on SSB wend I drive over the road. But that's another story. So if anyone knows anything about this topic, please feel to CHIME IN.

 

 

 

 

 

[Mobile Antenna for GRMS]

This is roughly the setup I use on my Sienna so I can fit in the garage. In order to connect this to your HT you would also need the adapter. This is certainly not the only setup you could use, I'm sure others will chime in. This, as I like I say about instruction manuals,  is just how one guy does it.

Thank you, WRQC527, for the help. Nice clean setup. That is what I'm looking for. 

[Mobile Antenna for GRMS]

Hello to all of you. I'm new to GRMS. I need to know the best antenna for my Cadillac SRX. I'm NOT going to drill holes in my car. I'm looking for a lip mount that nicely fits the back hatch. The handheld radio is Wouxun KG-935-G PLUS. So the coax must fit the radio also.  The antenna can't be tall because of the garage door and car washes. I am looking for HELP.

[KG-UV9GX vs KG-935G Plus]

I purchased the KG-UV9G (not the X) for my son-in-law before the X version came out. It came with all of the SHTF frequencies already programmed. It is a really nice radio. I have the KG-935G Plus. Of course it didn't come with SHTF frequencies but I have added everything I wanted and ended up putting most of what came on the UV9G on the 935G Plus. The UV9G (and the newer X version) is a superheterodyne receiver where the 935G Plus is a Direct Conversion receiver. As far as performance goes they are both about the same. We have used both radios talking to each other with the OEM antennas out to about 3.7 miles in a mountainous area where we didn't have direct line of sight and had clear communication. That is a little unusual and other areas in the mountains we don't get that range. Anywhere he could hear and talk to me I could hear and talk to him. They both work repeaters well. He is going to purchase the 935G Plus as he and I just gave his grandfather our KG-905Gs to use on his ranch. The 935G Plus has more volume than the UV9G which is good for me. I really don't think you could wrong with either radio. Both companies have great customer service. Sexy wrist strap aside, If I could only have one, I would probably go with the KG-935G Plus. You could just sell a body part and buy both! Have fun with which ever radio you decide on.

I bought the KG-935G Plus also. I love the radio, and Wizard Programming makes things much more manageable. Have fun, and be safe out there. 

[Has anyone bought the NEW Baofeng GRMS UV-5R?]

Mine works just like the non-GMRS UV-5R, except with slightly less guilt when I use it on GMRS frequencies.

It is 100% the same radio with just different programming.

Thank You, Randy. I just bought one. I watch your info on youtube about the (NEW) UV-5 GRMS—friendly little radio for the money. Again Thank You RANDY.

[Has anyone bought the NEW Baofeng GRMS UV-5R?]

If you bought the New GRMS UV-5R BAOFENG, please let us know how it works. 

[Any New Reporters?]

Is there any New reporters updates in each State. If so can you please send me them.

Thanks, Tom

Thank You.

Shortwave?  I don’t know what you mean by that. 
Are you talking about narrowband versus wideband?

Sorry, I mean Narrowband. 

[Input and Output Tones]

Can someone tell if you use the Shortwave. I know the KG905-G has both. And if so what is the differences between them. 

Thanks WRME377

[Input and Output Tones]

Again gentlemen, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. For someone that ran a BIG RADIO at one time. This GRMS is all new to an old OUTLAW. 

Thanks. WRME-377

I forget to ask do you set your RX tone on off all the time. I know that if your going to use a reporter and the RX tone is in the list for that reporter you have to input that RX tone. I have the New KG 905-G. Love it so far. Also how do you use the Auto Scan to fine that anyone is  on the RGT channel. Any help would be great. 

Thanks WRME377

[Input and Output Tones]

Thank you all for helping me to understand what DCS is and also CTCSS.

[Input and Output Tones]

What is a PL tone. And how do you fine it.
