Hello Folks,

Newbie here (so please be nice   ) 

I too recently ordered a pair of Wouxun KG-905G HT's as a fun means to keep in touch while out & about walking around the neighborhood

and doing chores. Plan to relocate to the South Carolina area later this year & figured this would be a novel way to stay in touch rather than

using a phone.  Curious if anyone can enlighten me as to if the KG-905G HT is capable of being programmed to receive FM radio as well as

the NOAA frequencies?  I noted the Wouxun KG-805G specifically mentions: 76-108Mhz FM radio capability, but no NOAA capability, at least

by default.

 

So, apologies in advance for the  eye-rolling defacto stupid question of the day, but I'm just curious if the programming capability of the 

Wouxun KG-905G would allow for programing in those frequencies ? or if the receiving capabilities of the device itself is not capable of it.

 

The NOAA frequencies are of more importance to me than the FM broadcast station reception, although if anyone knows of a GMRS HT

capable of both, I'd be interested in learning more about such a device.

 

Thanks in advance for anyone kind enough to read & taking the time to respond.

Good Day.

 

The 905 is not capable of FM or NOAA. I believe the KG-UV9G is capable of both. On the UV9P (the model the G version is based on) you do have to program in the NOAA frequencies manually however. Not a big deal as it is no different that entering in any other frequency.

Hello Michael,

Thanks so much for the response & insight.  I'll check into the KG-UV9G.

Patiently waiting for the 905 G to get back in stock.  Have one on order.

I ordered one, waiting for it to be shipped. I'll order a Wouxun KG-1000G when it's available.

Hello everyone, Below is the latest update on our Wouxun GMRS radios. A price increase is also happening soon on these models, please read below for more details. It has been a very long few months and we are incredibly thankful for everyone's support and patience.  Updates are below. The following are now in stock. Wouxun KG-805G: This is our most popular GMRS radio and the one Wouxun has been working the hardest to keep up on.  Shipments have been flowing in regularly but we are now completely caught up on backorders and have radios in stock that can ship quickly.  Because of the number of orders that these emails usually generate, if you place an order today for a KG-805G it may not ship until Tuesday.  Here's where we are on the other popular backordered items. Wouxun KG-1000G: While we haven't had surplus inventory on the KG-1000G for the past few months, the wait for a radio has typically only been 1-2 weeks after placing an order. We were told last week that this may change and that over the next month we may be receiving fewer KG-1000Gs than has been typical.  To avoid potentially long backorders, we have decided to no longer allow backorders on this model. Instead we will only allow orders once the product actually arrives.  We will change this back to our current policy once Wouxun secures a supply of needed components, which they expect to be around a month.  If you have a KG-1000G on backorder already, we are expecting enough radios to arrive within around two weeks to fill all current orders. Wouxun KG-905G: Wouxun assures us that a large number of KG-905G, enough to cover around 80% of our backorders, will ship next week. If you have been waiting on a KG-905G for more than 2-3 weeks, we expect that we will have enough product from the incoming shipment to fill your order. Price Increases Are Coming Very Soon Wouxun has had trouble sourcing enough components to build these radios and has had to find new suppliers. Their cost have increased, and we have been notified that our product cost will increase as well. We will need to increase our prices and expect to make some changes very soon. We've received feedback that many of you find this email format beneficial, so the plan is to continue to send emails like this when any of these items become available in more than sparse quantities. You're receiving this email because you signed up for a backorder notification mailing list from our web site. If you wish to stop receiving these updates, click here to unsubscribe. Thank you so much for your support! Danny Feemster President BuyTwoWayRadios.com
