  • Overview of the Cobra 75 CB Radio With Bluetooth

    Cobra recently added a new model to its lineup of CB radios with Bluetooth functionality. Called the Cobra 75, this AM/FM CB Radio has wireless connectivity to an all-in-one handset. All of the controls are on the handset itself, so the main unit can be tucked out of the way while the driver can operate the radio from the noise cancelling hand microphone.

    In this video segment from episode 186 of The Two Way Radio Show Podcast, Rick provides a brief overview of the Cobra 75 and all of its key features and specifications. The Cobra 75 All Road Wireless CB Radio with AM/FM + Bluetooth is available from Buy Two Way Radios.

  • Is it the End of the Line for the CB Radio?

    There has been a lot of talk about the purported death of the CB radio. While it is true that CB no longer enjoys the public popularity it had in its heyday during the 1970’s, does that make it a dead radio service? Is it really the end of the line for the CB radio?

    In this extended video segment from episode 186 of The Two Way Radio Show Podcast, Rick explores the question and uses the recent release of two new CB radios to explain why CB radio may actually be thriving in 2024.

    These two new radios include the Cobra 75 All Road Wireless CB Radio with AM/FM + Bluetooth and the President GEORGE FCC AM/FM/SSB CB Radio.

  • New President GEORGE FCC CB Radio Has AM, FM and SSB

    President George FCC AM/FM/SSB CB RadioIn 2021 the FCC changed the Part 95 rules to allow Frequency Modulation (FM) on the CB radio service. The President Group immediately took advantage of it. President has spent the last couple of years updating its line of CB radios to add FM functionality to a select assortment of models. Now there is one more in that lineup, but this is a brand new model, and it has one more feature that some of the others don't have.

    This is the President George FCC. It has AM, FM, and - wait for it - Single Side Band functionality. Yes, that's right, SSB. This radio delivers the maximum 4 watts of power that's allowed on CB, and combines the latest technology and high sensitivity with FM and SSB to deliver the best experience possible on the CB.

    This is a full featured CB radio that is engineered to be top of the line. It operates on 40 CB radio channels in AM, FM, upper side band and lower Side Band modes. It transmits up to 4 watts and AM and up to 12 watts PEP on the upper side band and lower side band.

    The GEORGE FCC has most of the standard features included in many other President models. It has 7 weather channels, a weather alert, public address capability, and of course the 7 color multi-function LCD display that is common on many of their other models. This is a popular feature, as it allows you to color co-ordinate your display for the inside of your cab or your vehicle.

    Of course, the GEORGE also has channel scan, tone, channel rotary switch, manual squelch and ASC. It has all the usual filters that are included with most of the other President models. it also has a power reading and an SWR meter, and a VU meter. Other features include talkback, a hands-free VOX function, beep function, roger beep, and F function key.
    There is also a mode switch so you can just instantly switch it back and forth between AM, FM, upper side band and lower side band, and a preset emergency EMG1 and EMG2.

    Now, at 7.28 inches x 6.77 inches x 2.20 inches, this is not exactly the smallest CB radio on the market, but it's not overly large, either. This puts it at a pretty decent size for fitting into most vehicles and cabs.

    The package includes the radio, ultra light electret microphone with support, a power cord, fuse, mounting bracket and the screws to go with it. Price: $279.00.

  • The Wouxun KG-S72C takes the handheld CB Radio into the 21st Century

    Let's face it, the CB radio has been largely stuck in a time warp for at least the past 20 years. This is particularly true of handheld models, with their bulky form factors and huge battery packs. However, Wouxun just changed all that with with the introduction of the Wouxun KG-S72C.

    In this video clip from Episode 169 of The Two Way Radio Show Podcast, Danny, Anthony and Rick introduce the new Wouxun KG-S72C handheld CB Radio and discuss how it adds modern technology to take the handheld CB into a new generation.

  • Wouxun KG-S72C CB Radio wins on power and charging options

    When it comes to handheld CB radios, the power options are somewhat limited to either huge packs of batteries or plug-in power via 12v adapters plugged into vehicles. Not so anymore. The Wouxun KG-S72C has power and charging options that bring CB into the modern world.

    In this video clip from Episode 169 of The Two Way Radio Show Podcast, Danny, Anthony and Rick discuss the power and charging options of the new Wouxun KG-S72C handheld CB Radio and why they think this model is a cut above other handheld CB radios currently on the market.

  • Wouxun KG-S72C programming and menu options

    Wouxun KG-S72C Front With DisplayThe Wouxun KG-S72C is a portable handheld CB radio with FM capability and other advanced features that ushers in a whole a new era of CB communications.

    The S72C is a bona fide 40 channel CB radio with added functions that, up until now, didn't even exist on most CB portables or mobiles. Check out the list of features below and compare them for yourself.

    Programming the KG-S72C
    As with other Wouxun radios, the KG-S72C is customizable directly from the keypad of the radio itself. Optional programming software allows you to assign CTCSS tones and DCS codes to the 40 CB channels when using the radio in FM mode. You can also configure other functions and features in the radio.

    Direct from the radio
    If you already know how to program features into another Wouxun radio, programming the KG-S72C directly from the radio itself is pretty much rote. The only real differences are the menu options themselves.

    If you are new to Wouxun handheld radios or configuring a two way radio in general, the KG-S72C owners manual will get you up to speed fast. Unlike many other import radios, this manual is carefully written in plain, simple English with clear instructions that are easy to understand, even when explaining some of the advanced features of the radio.

    The KG-S72C menu consists of 43 items. Default settings are bold.

    Programming with software
    The KG-S72C uses the Wouxun PCO-001 USB programming cable that works with the KG-S88G. Refer to the cable driver installation instructions for more information.

    Of course, the Wouxun KG-S72G programming software is specific to this radio and is currently available for Windows PCs only. The programming software is located under the Downloads tab on the Wouxun KG-S72C product page at Buy Two Way Radios.

    Wouxun KG-S72C FrontKG-S72C Operation
    The KG-S88G is quite similar in features and function to most of the other Wouxun handheld radios, with the exception of the 4-key keypad. Although it seems to be limiting on the surface, 4 key operation allows access to premium features while it simultaneously simplifies control. If you already have another Wouxun radio that is field configurable such as the KG-905G , working the S72C will be a similar experience. Even if you are not familiar with the operation of a 4-key Wouxun radio, it's not difficult to master, once you know how to navigate the menu.

    The keys on the keypad and their primary functions are listed below:

    Button Operation
    MENU Enter program menu|choose/set menu option
    UP Key Select previous channel/frequency|Select menu option
    DOWN Key Select next channel/frequency|Select menu option
    EXIT Exit menu/cancel

    The Wouxun KG-S72C is a compact, powerful and rugged CB radio that offers a lot of flexibility and ease of use at a very competitive price. Why settle for those older, behemoth handheld CB radios when you can have something more stylish and with the latest tech available? The answer is simple. Choosing the KG-S72C is a no-brainer.

  • Announcing the Wouxun KG-S72C Handheld AM and FM CB Radio!

    Wouxun KG-S72C Handheld AM and FM CB RadioCB radio as a service has changed a lot since its creation in 1948. During this time, there have been a number of significant changes to the rules. The latest occurred in October 2021, when the FCC allowed CB radios to operate using Frequency Modulation (FM). With all these changes, one would think the radios themselves would also be up to date. Well, not exactly. With very few exceptions, the quintessential CB radio has been somewhat stuck in a time warp, somewhere between the years 1976 and 1998. For the most part, the average CB radio of today is pretty much the same as it was 20 years ago. This is especially true of portable handheld models, which, with the sole exception of the President Randy FCC, are generally big, bulky, heavy, and power hungry walkie talkies.

    That is, until now.

    Wouxun, which has become a leader in next generation GMRS radios, is entering the CB arena as well, with the introduction of the new KG-S72C. This isn't your grandfather's CB radio. It's not your dad's, either. It's unlike any other CB radio currently on the market. Small, lightweight, and packed with features not found on other CB models, the KG-S72C looks to revolutionize the CB radio field.

    The S72C isn't just more compact. This is the smallest handheld CB radio on the market. Yes, even smaller than the Randy. It fits comfortably in the palm of the hand, and without the antenna attached, can even slip easily into a pocket or purse. But that's only the beginning. There is a lot to like about this radio, and it offers a lot of functionality that is new to CB. Here is a list of its most exciting features.

    FM Mode
    In October 2021, the FCC changed the rules to allow both Amplitude Modulation (AM) and Frequency Modulation (FM) on the CB radio service. As of June 2022, only one mobile CB was introduced to capitalize on this new feature. With the release of the new KG-S72C, we now have a handheld model with this capability. This is one of the first handy talkies that was approved by the FCC for operation on FM!

    The S72C transmits on up to 2 watts in AM mode and up to 4 watts in FM mode. Several features are built into the unit that take full advantage of FM. Read for more on those below.

    Wouxun KG-S72C With AntennaSize

    As mentioned before, the Wouxun KG-S72C is the smallest handheld CB radio on the market, which is saying a lot, since walkie talkies in the CB universe are notoriously heavy and huge. Some of that bulk is due to the outdated design of the outer shell and equally outdated circuitry within. But a lot of it is also caused by the even more antiquated power options. Many of these old thirty year throwbacks require a lot of AA alkaline batteries - up to nine! Sure, some of the "newer" models accept rechargeable AA cells as well, but that's still a lot of bulk and weight to carry around.

    Enter the Wouxun KG-72C. No more huge semiconductor circuits or big bunches of batteries to lug around. It uses state-of-the-art, 21st century technology powered by a modern, 2000mAh lithium-ion battery, with 7.4v for 14.28 Wh of power. This significantly reduces the size of the radio to only 4.53 × 2.14 × 1.36 inches, and the weight to a mere 8.32 ounces (without the antenna). Bye bye, brick radio. Hello, S72C.

    Superheterodyne Receiver
    Since we're on the subject of circuitry, this is not to say that the superheterodyne receivers of classic CB radios are no more. On the contrary, the KG-S72C has one. There's no direct conversion here. The S72C is a real CB radio all the way. Superhet is still alive and well. It's just better.

    Memory Channels
    CB radios in the US have 40 CB channels on frequencies assigned by the FCC. The Wouxun KG-S72C has them all. And that's not all. It also has space for 400 Memory Channels. This means that you can customize your channel names and clone your 40 CB channels for additional functionality. You can set up an AM and FM version of a channel, and add CTCSS tones and DCS codes in FM mode. Yes, you read that correctly. this CB radio has CTCSS tones and DCS codes. You can't do that with an old Radio Shack CB.

    Favorites Channel Feature
    Now for the stuff that makes the KG-S72C really new and unique. It starts with your favorite channels. Some high end or premium CB radios offer an Instant Channel 9 and/or 19, meaning that you can switch over to the emergency channel 9 or the home channel 19 for truckers at the press of a button or flip of a switch. Okay, nothing new here. But the KG-S72C takes it to a whole new level, by giving you the ability to add any of your personal favorite channels to a list, and letting you instantly access any of them, any time you want. You can also change the priority of channels 9 and 19 on the list, or remove either or both from it together if you want. The choice is yours!

    Programmable Function Keys
    Function keys have long been a standard with many business radios, and more recently incorporated into some consumer GMRS radios, but never a CB - until now. The KG-S72C introduces this concept with not one, but three programmable function keys! Two are located on the side under the PTT and one is on top. All three can be assigned to a specific function, and all of them use the same list of functions, so you can pick and choose which function you want from the list assigned to which key. Powerful versatility is the key, and the S72C gives it all to you.

    Wouxun KG-S72C DisplayAM and FM Fast Switching
    One of the most exciting features that you can be assign to a function key on the KG-S72C is the ability to instantly switch AM and FM modes. Called Fast Switching, you can toggle from AM mode to FM mode on a channel, and back again in an instant. There's no need to fumble through the menu of the radio to switch back and forth. It can be put right at your fingertips, and at your full control.

    Bright LCD Display
    The KG-S72C has a lighted LCD display with characters and icons that are easy to view, even in sunlight. The screen can be configured to display the channel name, channel number, or frequency. The backlight timer can be set from 1-30 seconds in one second increments. It can also be set to turn off immediately or remain on at all times.

    USB-C charging port
    Although the USB port has long been a standard for charging cell phones and other electronic devices, it is yet to become the de facto option for charging two way radios. That is changing, and leading the way for CB handhelds is the Wouxun KG-S72C. It has a built-in USB-C charging port in the right side of the radio so you can conveniently charge it anytime, anywhere there is USB power available. The S72C can also be charged conventionally using the drop-in desktop charger that comes in the package, but the option to use the USB-C port instead gives this radio a powerful advantage over other CB handhelds.

    Dust and Water Resistant
    Another exciting new feature Wouxun brings to the CB world is dust and water resistance. The KG-S72C is rated IP65 dust and water resistant, which is rather resistant, and more so than other CB radios currently available. How many other CB radios are rated IP65? At the time of this article, we could find only one. It's this one. So, there you go.

    Wouxun KG-S72C Right AngleCompatible with standard K1 Connector Accessories
    Yes, it's true. The KG-S72C uses a Kenwood two-pin (K1) type audio port. The K1 is one of the most popular and widely used radio accessory connector types in use today. This translates into easy access to a plethora of audio accessories for your CB radio, including earpieces, headsets, speaker microphones and more. No proprietary stuff here. You won't need to pay through the nose for an earbud with a special connector made exclusively for that one brand of CB radio. You have lots of others from which to choose. And that translates to a lower cost for you.

    Cross-Compatibility with other S-Series Radios
    The KG-72C has one more thing to contribute to the new era of CB. This is not a one-off or loner radio. All of the batteries and charger options for the S72C are cross compatible with other Wouxun S-Series radios. For instance, if you use both CB and GMRS, the same power accessories for the S72C will also fit the Wouxun KG-S88G. When was the last time you were able to use the charger for a Midland GMRS radio with a 75-822? Or a Uniden FRS radio with a PRO401HH? Or any Cobra FRS bubble pack radio with an HHRT 50 ROADTRIP? Probably never, because you can't. But with the Wouxun S-Series radios, you can.

    Other features
    But we're not quite done yet. In addition to all the innovative, exciting things that the Wouxun KG-S72C brings to the New Era of CB Radio, it offers a few more to enhance your on-air experience even further. These features include high and low power selectivity, channel scan, priority scan, monitor function, squelch adjustment, custom power on message, timeout timer, transmit overtime alarm, roger beep, voice menu with English voice prompts, stopwatch timer, VOX, built-in flashlight, and lock mode. And all of this comes with a one year manufacturer warranty from Wouxun.

    And to top it all off, there is the price. You would think this little handheld CB radio, for all its innovations, would cost a lot more. But it doesn't. The KG-S72C is priced very competitively with other handheld CB radios that are bigger, bulkier, heavier and have so much less. Price: $119.99

    The Wouxun KG-S72C Handheld AM and FM CB Radio is now available exclusively from Buy Two Way Radios.
