Description / Wouxun KG-XS20G Plus GMRS Base/Mobile Two Way Radio

Stop using business or amateur radios for GMRS! The Wouxun KG-XS20G Plus is FCC approved specifically for GMRS use, so it is completely legal! FCC ID: WVTWOUXUN25


You want the powerful versatility of a premium GMRS mobile radio, but without the premium price? You get it all with the Wouxun KG-XS20G Plus! It takes the best features of a full size mobile radio and puts it all into a very compact package that fits into most any vehicle with ease. And it does all this at a price that won't wallop your wallet. It's not your typical mobile GMRS radio!

The KG-XS20G Plus has 30 GMRS channels, including 8 repeater channels, and can receive on dual UHF and VHF bands. It has NOAA weather channels and has a built-in FM radio. It's not your typical in-dash car radio, to be sure.

The XS20G Plus is loaded with features, some that are standard on a few other mainstream GMRS mobiles, but many more that aren't. These include 999 programmable memory channels, simultaneous dual channel receive, channel and frequency modes, wide and narrow bandwidth options, and support for both standard and non-standard CTCSS/DCS tones.and codes, plus split tones and tone scan. It has channel scan, priority channel scanning, and the ability to create up to 10 scan groups. This is not your basic mobile GMRS radio.

Other features include group call, all call and select call options, compander, DTMF encode and decode, high and low power selectivity, single tone pulse frequency, reverse frequency, talk around, an SOS function, English voice prompts and a stopwatch timer. Again, not a basic mobile GMRS radio.

The KG-XS20G Plus is as functional outside the case as it is within. It sports a full color dual channel LCD display that's easy on the eyes. The display has four color themes. It also features a Night Mode option that can be activated by a programmable key. It can display one or both A and B areas of the radio, as well as channel names, numbers or frequencies, plus Caller ID and info on vehicle voltage. A powerful speaker is built into the top of the unit, with ample volume to be heard above noise on the road. A 3.5mm jack on the back of the radio allows you to connect an external speaker as needed.

It's also quite rugged. The Wouxun XS20G Plus is rated IP65 for dust ingress and water resistance and the hand microphone is rated IP55, which makes this a great GMRS radio to take on off-road adventures!

The KG-XS20G Plus includes a handheld speaker mic with a full DTMF keypad. It has TX and RX LED indicators and a volume knob for independent control of the audio on the front of the speaker mic. The keypad on the mic is also backlit for easier operation in the dark.

Speaking of versatility, the Wouxun XS20G Plus is also fully PC programmable. The radio also includes two programmable function keys that can be customized either with the programming software or directly from the menu on the radio itself. One key is located on the front panel of the radio, the other on the side of the hand speaker microphone. Each can be independently programmed to activate two specific features, one with a short press of the key, the second with a long press. Once more, not your typical GMRS mobile.

In addition to its primary function as a mobile radio, the KG-XS20G Plus can also be powered by an optional Wouxun Power Supply (sold separately) to turn your GMRS mobile receiver into a fully operational GMRS base station! How's that for versatility?

The Wouxun XS20G Plus comes with a handheld speaker microphone, mobile mounting bracket, mobile power cord, 12V vehicle power cord, hand microphone hook, fuses, screw set, an easy to understand owner's manual in plain English and a one year manufacturer warranty from Wouxun.

Optional Power Supply

Turn your Wouxun KG-XS20G Plus mobile radio into a full-featured fixed base station with the Wouxun DWC30WIN Power Supply!

This 30A switching power supply has an output voltage of 13.8V DC and is adjustable between 9V and 15V! It offers automatic current limiting within 30A for protection from short-circuits and includes a large LCD display with digital meter for high visibility.

The KG-XS20G Plus and DWC30WIN combo is a great option for those who want a powerful base station without the powerfully high cost!

Optional Programming Cable

For your convenience, an optional USB programming cable (Model PCO-003) is available to program the Wouxun KG-XS20G Plus from a computer.

NOTE: Programming software is available for download from the Downloads tab above.

Wouxun KG-XS20G Series Questions and Answers

Yes. This radio is fully compatible with all 22 channel FRS, GMRS, or FRS/GMRS combo radios.
Yes! The KG-XS20G Plus is FCC Part 95E type accepted for legal use on the GMRS. It is also Part 15B type accepted as a scanning receiver. The FCC ID is WVTWOUXUN25.
While this radio is compatible with other FRS/GMRS radios, this is not a consumer grade radio. It was designed with power users in mind. It has many advanced features that would usually appeal more to the avid GMRS operators, such as repeater support and the ability to use PC programming software to customize the channels list. Check the list of features below this FAQ and discover all the advanced capabilities of the XS20G Plus. You won't find some of them on other GMRS type accepted mobile radios!
Yes, if you use the programming software (available from the Downloads tab). The KG-XS20G Plus supports up to 999 programmable channels, and with the software you can add new channels or even remove standard ones. The CTCSS/DCS tones can be customized for each channel and can be different for transmit and receive.

Extra channels are useful for many reasons. If you access different repeaters that use the same frequency but different tones, it's more convenient to add each combination to it's own channel instead of changing tones through the menu. Channels can also be given friendly names instead of a simple number, and the default channel names can be customized.

A programming cable is required to customize the radio through the software. Check the Accessories tab above for options.
Absolutely! It also supports both standard and non-standard CTCSS/DCS, plus it has the ability to scan for tones and codes.
Yes. Even though this radio can communicate with license free FRS radios, it has several features that make it fall under the GMRS service and not FRS. Some of these features are: Up to 20 watts of power (FRS limit is 2), removable antenna (FRS must be fixed), and repeater support (FRS doesn't support repeaters). Check out our GMRS licensing FAQ page for more info.
Lots of reasons! In short, we've been in the radio business for a long time (since 2002) and we do things the right way. Our staff is here to help if you have a question or a problem.

Perfect for general mobile use
Review by SJ Viking
I paired this with a DPD Productions magnetic Mount mobile antenna.

I like the speaker in the microphone, and I can also listen to the speaker in the radio itself.

I also like the fact that this 20-watt radio only requires power from a cigarette lighter adapter

The only problem I had was the squelch setting didn't take effect until I cycled the power on and off!
The Wouxun KG-XS20G
Review by KCJ
First of all I don't like to say that I am so far very pleased with Wouxun radios. I am writing a little review on the Wouxun KG -XS20G radio. The reason why I'm giving it four stars is because I have not had the radio for a long period of time so I do not know how well it will hold up during longer use. I purchased this radio because it is a mobile and it has a certain particular feature that I really have come to like. This feature is the tone scan. Few radios have this feature. The way the tone scan works is when you're in channel scan and you pick up an active conversation on a frequency you can scan for their tone and apply it to either the repeat frequency, receive frequency or both this is a great feature if you are traveling and you want to find out where local repeaters are in your area. I also noticed on this radio that it is more sensitive then other radios which is good' cause you'll be able to hear weaker stations.
Wouxun KG-XS20G
Review by Mike C.
I recently purchased a Wouxun KG-XS20G from buytwowayradios.com to upgrade from my GMRS HT unit. The radio is used for communication to other offroad vehicles for exploration through the mountains and desert of Southern Utah, Nevada and Arizona. The installation was very easy. I chose to mount the Wouxun KG-XS20G on a CB bar over the rear view mirror of my Jeep Wrangler. My antenna is located at the bottom of the A pillar. Even with a very small antenna ground plane, the Wouxun KG-XS20G has an SWR measurement of 1.80. The radio enables us to communicate easily over 10 to 15 miles and around 40 miles when we use a nearby repeater. The Wouxun KG-XS20G is easily programmed with their software and a data cable. The only problem I found was the extremely annoying 3 tones emitted by the radio when it is first powered on. I would have given a 5 star rating if the power-on tones could have been somehow turned off.
great little radio
Review by amgovret97
I really like this radio. It sounds good and transmit is also very good. Programming is nice and not limited to only a few repeaters. Only thing I don't like is having to remove a back panel with two tiny screws to get to the programming jack. I would certainly recommend this radio, especially the microphone connector.

KG XS20G
Review by WRPB993
So far so good. I'm in an apartment on the second floor so my field of view is not the best. However, when a transmission comes in, it's loud and clear. Scan mode is a off slow and inaccurate. It'll stop on a repeater channel but really be picking up a regular FRS/GMRS channel like 1 or 4. All good though. Also, purchased the KG805 G. This HT is a winner. My 14 year old's Cobra PX655 and the KG 805G are good friends. Even a hillside and distance couldn't split them up .
Great little rig
Review by Tom S
Perfect little GMRS mobile or base station with great power. It is a very intuitive easy rig to work with.. Love it daily!
Good radio
Review by Andy
Great starter radio built very solid love the mic cord plug all radios should have that. Only complaint is that aggravating beep when ya turn it on anyone know how to cut that off? But all and all good radio for sure and love the manual easy to read
Great radio
Review by Marc
This is a great little radio. Would recommend it. Good manual, sounds good ! Well built.
Great radio but there's a very annoying problem
Review by Nathan
I bought the KGXS-20G to use as a base station to go along with the four KG-935G handhelds my family has purchased previously. I was, as the marketing video on this website says, buying the XS-20G to add another piece of a Wouxun "complete GMRS radio system."

I think they are all great radios but there is an inconsistency with the key labeling on the KGXS-20G unit I received that is VERY annoying. All of the KG-935G handhelds I have bought have a MODE key and a TDR key, and all the photos and videos on this website also show the KGXS-20G has a MODE key and a TDR key. Even the manual that came with my KGXS-20G shows that it is supposed to have a MODE key and a TDR key.

But on my unit, the MODE key has been labeled "V/M", and the TDR key has been labeled "RPT". The buttons do what they are supposed to, but after all the time and money spent to buy and learn the in's and outs of this Complete Wouxun radio "SYSTEM", (and teach it to my family) it is super annoying to have to mentally translate V/M to MODE and RPT to TDR every time we go to use the radio. I called and left a voicemail at Buytwowayradios about this but have received no response. If they won't fix the problem I guess I'll just stick on some homemade labels for this radio. But I'm sure not going to buy the other two I was planning for our vehicles. It's not a "system" if the buttons are all different.
