Wouxun KG-1000G Series Questions and Answers

Yes. This radio is fully compatible with all 22 channel FRS, GMRS, or FRS/GMRS combo radios.
Yes! The KG-1000G 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 WVTWOUXUN20.
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. When connected to a second KG-1000G Plus, it can even be converted into a GMRS repeater! You won't find this feature on other GMRS type accepted mobile radios.
Yes, if you use the programming software (available from the Downloads tab). The KG-1000G 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 50 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. We stock these radio in our on-site warehouse, so if we tell you something will ship then you can believe us.

    Before I say anything about the radio, I just want to say that BuyTwoRadios.com has the best customer service I ever delt with (I'm 65 years old) and I use to work on an IT help desk. Quick response time, fast delivery, overall an A+ company.
    The KG-1000+ is a solid radio that I'm using as a base station. I find the dual speaker volume nobs most useful since I monitor two repeater sites. I'm still new in the GMRS world and have a lot to learn. Although I may be new, I'm finding the KG-1000+ easy to use. I prefer using a program cable over using the Microphone.

  5. Very nice! review by Chris on 3/5/2024

    Very nice unit. My only complaint is that I wish the audio was a little louder. Not a deal breaker though, I would buy again.

  6. amazing performance review by paul on 3/4/2024
    Rating

    A little more learning with all the setting but that's a good thing. So many features. I have a magnetic roof mount with a nagoya 770g 6db antenna and I'm running 1.01 swr. I'm able to reach my repeater 40 miles away full signal. I haven't tried further but I do cross city simplex with my buddy that's over 10 miles away and we're both full bars. The different mounting options are amazing. The software is good and it works good with chirp. The programable buttons are awesome. I can only transmit on gmrs but I can listen to everything

    I did my research before buying what I wanted to use as my base station radio and was so impressed I bought another one for my pickup. With the base station radio and my mobile radio my wife and I can talk all over our valley — and we live in a pretty hilly area. Personally, I feel these Wouxun 50 watt radios are among the best you can buy. Super easy to program too!!

  9. Very Nice So far! review by Christopher on 1/30/2024

    Ive had many radios, but this is the first higher dollar model I own. WOW, it's so clear, no more mystery noises, loud clicks or static. It also has real time squelch adjustment! Now I see the difference and Im so happy with this unit. The options like the face plate removal and postion adjustment are on point, the quality of build is above average. The screen and speakers....yes speaker "S" which this unit has two, one for each band, sound VERY GOOD. I recommend this unit, Im using it as a base station and am currently looking at posting some YouTube Reviews also at BaaSicStuff on YouTube.

    About Two Way Radios, their LIVE chat and staff have advised me and helped me with my build, I asked so many questions but not once did they act as if I was troubling them. Customer service alone is a good reason to purchase from these guys, cause you will have questions and they answer them to the best of their ability.

  10. Nice radio review by Terry R on 1/28/2024

    This radio seems to be high quality. Works right out of the box for GMRS. I bought the program cable later when I decided to add some Chanels . I couldn’t get it to read the radio on my computer so I called customer support at buy two way radio. The guy I talked to had me up and running in no time he was very knowledgeable. I really like the radio and the customer support.

    Bought a second unit to use as a repeater. New unit has a transmit issue...transmits 469 when set for 462. Bad thing is it will take a week to get back and more than a week for the replacement to return. Scrapping the Wouxuns and getting a real repeater.

    So far so good except for bad DC pwr lead connector(s), the unit would power up and shut down on its own when the DC connectors near the unit were moved. OEM connectors were promptly replaced with power poles and now all is well.

    Rating

    Purchased the KG-1000g about 3 years ago and microphone discovered bad after warranty expired so bought another mike for $25 and found that the left side of radio when in dual band was intermittent so only used on right side and programming worked well. So, I decided to purchase another KG-1000G Plus upgraded model and have found no faults with the Plus model , In fact ready to purchase another KG-1000 Plus!

  15. Amazing Radio For Price review by ACM on 1/6/2024

    I Bought This 50Watt GMRS Wouxun KG-1000G Plus Radio to install in my Offroad Rig And i made a Custom Ram Mount For My Rago Fab Center Console Molle Panel System with Bridge plate mounted radio to my bridge plate system and came out nice have the faceplate mounted on bridge and the Radio body is mounted under the seat.. amazing radio there are a few things i don't like you cant change which speaker controls what channel but that's fine just switch the main station to a or b for which ever one you want the bigger speaker on.. when radio chassis is mounted under a seat the speakers are not very loud at all there only loud if used as a base station inside. love the removable face plate love the customizability of the settings and screen super easy to see.. what i love the most is the programmability of the keys and that it was easy to take the program channels of my KG-935G Plus in chirp and move the entire channel list over then upload to radio with the chirp software and the programming cable i purchased. SWR was amazing out the box with the Wouxun antenna and NMO Mag Mount From Wouxun as well as tested radio with the NMO Clamp mount as well results down below.. all in all a amazing radio about to buy 3 more 2 for a repeater system and 1 as a base station just amazing radio for the price and what you get.

    ANO-050G Freq - SWR - Pwr
    01 462.5625 - 1.00 - 4.7.w
    07 462.7125 - 1.00 - 4.7w

    Based on other Wouxun radios that I have bought from TWR I decided to spend the extra money on the 1000G + instead of the BTECH. I had some issues with the 1000G and the TWR staff sent me a new 1000G that works perfectly. I will continue to buy equipment from TWR because of the products they offer and their excellent customer service.

  22. KG-1000G Plus is Super-Fantastic! review by Randy on 12/8/2023
    Rating

    I picked up the KG-1000G Plus during the Black Friday 2023 sale…what a deal! I upgraded from the Wouxum KG-935G HT in hopes of getting better range with more watts, and the KG-1000G Plus came through like a champ! Setup and programming was simple and straight forward with the help of the instruction manual for options I was unsure about. I’m now able to hit repeaters in my area that were previously unreachable with my HT. The chassis of the KG-1000G Plus is solidly built and controls feel reliable. The speakers are a bit loud but the sound is clear with a noticeable punch throughout listening area. My only suggestions would be to: 1. Add an option in the menu to set the brightness of the LCD screen and also change its color. 2. Dial-down the volume so that the radio isn’t so loud at its lowest setting (perhaps a firmware update). Overall the Wouxun KG-1000G Plus is a great radio for anyone looking to extend or expand their GMRS footprint.

  23. Top notch service and gear. review by JW on 12/8/2023
    Rating

    In the last two months, I’ve purchased three Wouxun KG1000Plus’s, two mobile antennas and mounts, one power supply, one base station antenna tuned for GMRS, and a very heavy (Italian) coaxial cable.
    All very impressive gear. I love the mounting flexibility that the removable face of the radio offers. I mounted all three faces in convenient locations and the radios in out of the way spots. Very impressive programmability also.
    I tested each radio and antenna with a power/SWR meter. All three radios put out 47-48 watts and the antennas are well within spec.

  24. Great GMRS Radio & Features review by JC on 12/7/2023
    Rating

    Let me say first that the KG1000G-Plus is an awesome radio. I have owned several top brand GMRS Radios over the last 8 years.
    I now own 2 of the KG1000G-Plus's and they are "heads and tails" above their GMRS counterparts on the market. Will I buy another? You bet!
    I did multiple tests of both my KG's before I decided to write this review, both on the bench and in the field. One thing to note here, each GMRS radio I have owned has had its good points and bad points. My views here are only based upon my own experiences. I know others may have different experiences and opinions on this radio.
    For base operations I use a Laird 4605 Antenna....SWR 1.14 on the High side, 1.01 on the Low side. For mobile use I use a Midland MXTA26 with the Midland NMO Lip Mount, Midland NMO Mag Mount, and also use the Melowave NMO Mag Mount. SWR 1.01 across the board on those.
    The Good Stuff:
    Great receiving capabilities. Much more sensitive to the weaker signals than the other GMRS radios I own.
    Good sound quality from the radio speakers while used as a Mobile and a Base.
    A very clear display. I dont find the screen pixelation to be a problem for me as others have noted. I actually like the larger digit view.
    The fan is relatively quiet and is not bothersome. Even while operating on frequent transmit sessions. The unit can get hot though, and the fan will run until cool.
    Easy to program with Chirp. I prefer Chirp over the stock software because I feel Chirp gives me more flexibility in the "Cut and Paste" world.
    I have used Chirp for years. Some may like the RT Systems Software for this type of flexibility.
    Easy to use "On the fly" Microphone settings and programming. Kudos on this one!
    Multiple programming options to set up the radio to your specific tastes and needs. The options are truly unlimited.
    The Priority Channel feature and settings work flawlessly.
    If you are setting up Scan Groups you will definitely be a "happy camper".
    The settings and operation while using Codes and Tones is perfect.
    I have been told crystal clear reception while transmitting. I have talked Simplex at a Max of 20 Miles so far. 1/2 over water and 1/2 through thick forest.
    I'm still doing more testing. There are no repeaters in my rural location.
    The "So So" Stuff:
    No dimming control for the display while night driving. Seems to be a common complaint with the KG1000G Plus....Yep, I now understand that.
    Scan Speed is much too slow. You will miss some transmissions, even with a small scan group.
    It seems the transmit Wattage varies between radios a bit. My 1st radio transmits 47-48 Watts on the high side into my 50W dummy load using a BTECH
    RPS-30PRO set at 14.1 Volts. Voltage holds steady while transmitting at 14.1, with the Amp draw between 10 and 10.1. My 2nd Radio transmits at 45-46 Watts using the same gear and settings. Not a deal breaker of course, but still a 2 watt difference. I own 2 Midlands, and both transmit at their rated wattage. However, their receive capability cannot compare to my 2 KG1000G Plus's.
    The Speaker in the hand Microphone is really not loud enough to assist inside of a noisy vehicle.
    I had to take away one star for the "So So" Stuff", but I will still buy another KG1000Plus, or the next upgrade, whichever comes first.
    Hope this helps someone out there shopping.
    Happy Transmitting!!!!

    It is a great radio. I’m in the process of programming all the frequencies I want in the radio. I love that just the control head can be put on a separate mount and the bulk of the radio is under my seat. I love my no holes mount for my radio. I love that I don’t have to hook up my portable radio to my vehicle and when I’m in for the night, I have to unplug my portable. Now I don’t have to. Thank You for making a great mobile radio.

  30. First radio puchase review of KG-1000G+ review by TIM on 9/10/2023
    Rating

    My first KG-1000G+ radio purchase went off flawlessly. Shipping was pretty quick. These are a list of my Pro's and Con's with this radio.

    PROS:

    Unit has a multitude of great functions. The 1 wire clone feature is fantastic to program a second unit!

    Sound quality is superb on both transmit and receive.

    Unit build is of superior quality.

    Ability to link two radios together as a repeater is an outstanding feature!

    Removable and remote face plate locating is also nice.

    Transmission comes back loud and clear (sound like a local) at a 40 mile distance.

    CONS:

    Unit scan speed is horribly slow and sporadic.

    No dimming of the display is available

    Unit is NOT putting out 50 watts.... (36-37) is what i'm getting out of it. For the price point (45-47) should be more inline with the "norm".

    I'm overall very pleased with the radio but it suffered the loss of 1 star due to "scan speed" and being under-powered from the claim of 50 watts.

  31. Good radio with some quirks review by Phil on 9/3/2023
    Rating

    I now have three of these radios so they aren’t bad radios. There are a few quirks though.
    1. The rx meter and light sometimes stick on while scanning. The radio continues to work as it should and continues scanning though.
    2. When using as a repeater pair there is about a one second delay before the transmit radio starts transmitting.
    3. When using as a repeater pair there is no “kerchunk” that can be heard by the person transmitting into the repeater nor is there a setting to adjust the hang time. I know most don’t prefer to hear it but it’s helpful to know if you’re actually hitting the repeater.

    All in all it’s a good radio with a few minor quirks

    I recently purchased my KG-1000, and I have no regrets. The radio is built well. I can hit repeaters now, that I couldn't reach before. The receiving is better than either of my Midlands. I caught the radio on sale too, which made it even better for me. It was easy to program, and the 3 speakers are great. You can listen to 2 different channels at once, and control both by their own volume knobs. Truly happy with this purchase, and it arrived quicky. Great service also by Buy Two Way Radios. I will be buying from them again also.

    5 Stars for sure.
    Radio is well built, packed full of scanning and listening options, easy programing while having 50 watts of transmitting power. Thank you Buy Two Way Radios for always providing superior products and making my purchases a pleasurable experience. Kudos!

    Very happy with this mobile unit. I will likely purchase another one for my shack once I put yet another antenna on my roof. Using the Comet 2x4SRNMO with a 5" mag mount on my van. Great combo. Good reports back on transmissions and receive audio is good too. Using an external speaker that is sometimes too quiet, so it helps to have a speaker in the mic.

  38. I should have bought this radio first review by Bill Van, Harrison,AR on 7/8/2023
    Rating

    Oh, I love this radio. I decided to bargain shop and bought a whole bunch of radios for lesser cost and much lesser performance. I watch notarubicon on YouTube quite a bit. I consider myself to be a NOTARUBICON super fan. Anyway this radio is so easy to program, puts out 53 watts from my SWR/Power meter. The speakers are on top of the radio and there’s a speaker for each of the two radios inside the box. Meaning, it’s a dual channel you have an aA and a B side so you can scan two frequencies simultaneously. I would say that the LED display could be more crisp and clear. It’s kind of pixelated for such a high end radio and it doesn’t scan terribly fast. That would be the only two negatives. I have to say I thought about buying this radio for almost 2 years I finally did and I bought two of them. I’ll probably buy two more for my kids. It’s that good. It’s expensive but totally worth the price tag I got the plus model so I have the extra programmable channel on top. I am very happy that I got the plus model it was only $20 more and worth it. This is the end of my review. WRKZ725 Harrison Arkansas.
    Buy this radio. You will love it and you’ll soon forget about how much it cost.

    I am new Wouxun brand radios, I had my initial doubts. I finally decided go ahead and get the 1000g Plus, and give my review on the unit to my community GMRS group. Right out of the box you could tell this was a quality radio. The faceplate spacers were a fantastic idea! The mic is also of great quality, with a backlight for the keypad you can turn on and off, and a lock button so you don’t accidental press buttons you don’t want to. The transmit power on this unit is like nothing I’ve used before. It actually puts out what it claims it does when tested with the SDR meter. Also, it’s a superheterodyne radio, I think that should be advertised more with this brand. 100% worth the price tag!

  41. KG-1000G Plus Radio and Repeater review. review by Dave on 5/18/2023
    Rating

    i After spending a couple of weeks working with the radio.
    As a radio its 5 stars don't get me wrong. I would recommend it as a radio and no t a repeater. I will explain The receive and transmitting are outstanding. Transmit on repeater is 50 watts. easy to program on the fly. Data cable works great once you get the drivers. I don't have a CD drive on the laptop. I had to hunt down drivers but not hard to do.

    As 2 linked together it works. Range was outstanding. You have no pin outs for linking anything. No ID O Matic or linking to internet items direct. This is a huge failure. Buy two way radios did provide me as much as possible. I figured it worked till I did more testing. Failure again.

    As a repeater if your only using it for family and no other call signs it a great setup. I cant recommend this as repeater for public use. I hope this changes. I will keep testing but in no rush. As a repeater a poor design with no support of adding accessories at this time.

  42. All in all a great radio review by James on 5/17/2023
    Rating

    I've had this radio for a while using it in the shack as a base as well as in the Jeep. It preforms well in both situations. However, if I could find any fault it would be in the mobile operation and honestly, I don't really think it's the radio at fault. It's hard to hear clearly when I have the top down and the doors off of the Jeep - and quite honestly I doubt there's a radio out there that could overcome that situation. I believe a remote speaker would eliminate that even being an issue. The only other "complaint' I have with the radio is the fact that I cannot dim the display. I have the unit mounted just above the rear view mirror in the Jeep and the brightness of the display does tend to be overpowering at night.

    All in all, I really love the radio, highly recommend you purchasing it. It's easy to operate and program.

    I love this radio. Unfortunately, the manual says it comes with a magnetic mic holder - when I called because mine was missing, they told me it does not, however they graciously sent me one. I called one other time to ask how I get it to stop beeping when I press the ptt and the guy that helped me through the menus did....but as I was in the car full of friends...they responded about how rude he was. Like I said he helped....but he seemed irritated about my call. I'm new to GMRS so I dont know what all the menus mean - sorry about that.

    I bought this from a guy who bought from B2WR.
    First, it helped teach me alot about how tones and such work. The customization for channels and names is amazing as well as the customization of the product itself! Even better is the fact that, although the programming software for the KP-935 plus is not the same, it is intuitive enough to make sure ALL channels across both systems are identical! As a noob, I love this radio!

    Rating

    No issue reaching out to my local repeaters and simplex. It would be nice if the PLUS had the same feature as the kg-935g plus—a (last active area indicator). Monitoring two areas is excellent, but without knowing which one it came from is a downer. FIRMWARE UPDATE?

  47. Couple Features/Changes I'd Like To See review by Errol S on 3/20/2023
    Rating

    Don't let the title mislead you. This is a fantasist radio. I just ordered a 2nd to replace my outdated single band mobile GMRS radio. The Wouxun RX is clear as a bell. TX on a repeater 25+ miles away comes back as full quiet and my TX audio is crystal clear. I live in a deep river valley in the middle of town. Very impressive. The ability to scan both A + B sides is a plus. I'll have side A scan local GMRS/HAM repeaters, and side B scans local PD/Fire/EMS frequencies. I don't miss any traffic now. I highly recommend the KG1000G+ for the beginner, to the experienced ham guys/gals.

    My KG1000G+ wish list (Reason for the 4 stars):
    1- A cross band repeat option. One that allows me to TX from my HT to my Wouxun base, then have the Wouxun TX to GMRS channels. Possibly a firmware update so I don't have to buy another radio. As there are other radios that have the cross band repeat option, even the Wouxun KG-UV980P, it seems none go into the GMRS bands. Having this option would allow me to use my HTs around my house/property/city, while still reaching GMRS repeaters at full quiet using base radio/antenna. Be the first and lead the way...
    2- The scan speed is a little slow. I only have around 10-15 channels in each scan group, and tend to miss call signs and BOT on PD/Fire/EMS. Only gets worse when adding more channels/frequencies. Needs to scan faster.
    3- The ability to turn Roger Beep on/off for individual channels. Some of my local repeaters frown on Roger Beeps. I like using them while on simplex with family/friends. But seems with the KG1000G+, if you turn it on, it turns it on for all channels/frequencies. Both A + B sides. At minimum, have it as a quick key option to turn on/off easily.

    Overall, despite my few personal gripes, this is still an amazing radio. So much so, I have a second KG1000G+ on the way. Thank you to BTWR for having an easy to navigate website, hassle free checkout, and fast/free shipping. Can't ask for much more than that.

    I have other 50 watt GMRS radios, but they picked up interference from nearby electronics. This radio has a nice clean sound, great reception, and features way more options and channels than the other brands. I too unfortunately live in a dead zone, but this unit from Wouxun, outperforms all my other radios. Glad I made this purchase.

    Rating

    Surpassed my expectations from the YouTube reviews I've seen. The area I live in is a dead zone for me to receive much GMRS traffic. I can now not only hear but can hit the local repeaters 15-20 miles away. On simplex channel's I'm getting twice as far to my handheld at home. Purchased this radio for my weekend off-roading group so I can hear all riders in the group and it works very well for that. I'm very happy with my WOUXUN KG-1000G +

  52. Overall good radio review by Rick on 3/2/2023
    Rating

    Have had the KG-1000G for a few months now and so far it has worked well as a base station. I use the dual receive so that I can keep one channel on a specific frequency that I use with a friend and use the other "Area" to scan all the channels.
    Unlike Midland units that I have, this radio can also monitor the FRS 467 MHz interstitial channels 8-14 which lets you know if there is use of those frequencies.
    I knew before I bought the radio that the screen was not the best display, but it has still been OK. I wish it was more like some of my older amateur radios that have really nice displays with finer detail and not being quite so pixelated.
    But overall, I would recommend this radio as about the best 50 watt GMRS unit currently available.

  53. Looks good, feels durable and works well review by tgs on 3/1/2023
    Rating

    I am new to GMRS, but I've been around radios or all sorts for a very very long time. This radio appears to have been well thought out. I had fun installing it. I wanted to separate the head unit but ultimately decided to keep it as a single unit for convenience in my situation. I love the two channel monitoring and the ability to control everything from the handset/mic!

    The only thing that I won't call a "CON", but I would have liked "better". The speaker on the handset is, for me useless. The volume won't go high enough for me to clearly hear traffic. I haven't reached out to see if this is a mfg defect. If anyone else has a much louder mic/speaker please let me know. Not really a show stopper in my opinion.

    This radio has so much to offer and at a great price point. I get unsolicited reports on my TX audio and the RX audio is just wonderful. I picked up the programming cable which makes programing a breeze. I am still learning all the different things this radio is capable of! You can purchase their wireless microphone and plug a device into the radios mic plug and it becomes a Bluetooth handheld mic or run Bluetooth right from in your car if so equipped! Power output is right at 50watts. The radio is very well built with no flimsy knobs. Thanks buy two way radios. So nice to have you guys close by! First rate folks!

    Enjoy the radio a lot, and the upgrades from the 1000 to the 1000 PLUS are a nice touch. Had a problem a few days after receiving the radio - a crimped cable from the unit to the faceplate which prevented the radio from operating, but B2W assisted with troubleshooting and provided a replacement cable. Radio works like a champ.

  63. Excellent GMRS mobile/base. review by Ken F. on 12/12/2022
    Rating

    I have a Wouxun KG-1000G and a KG-1000G PLUS - they are both excellent GMRS transceivers. I would like to suggest however that for future specials that include a free mag mount antenna (or for orders that include a mag mount antenna) DO NOT INCLUDE THE MAG MOUNT IN THE SAME BOX AS THE RADIO. I believe that it MAY BE "POSSIBLE" that these strong magnets can alter the magnetic field within the iron core tuning slugs of the I.F. stages and others and thereby "detune" the radios from factory specs. It may also be possible to magnetize small "reed relays" thereby causing them to "stick" or slow their action. Speaker performance can also be degraded by altering their permanent magnetic fields. My KG-1000G PLUS arrived with the strong (car roof side) of the mag mount sitting (in it's cardboard box) placed DIRECTLY ON TOP of the radio box separated by a TOTAL of only about 3/4" of cardboard from the top of the radio itself. Cardboard does NOT contain or dampen magnetic fields! These very strong mag mount fields extend about 2 OR MORE inches through ANYTHING (including cardboard), as you can feel the VERY STRONG "pull" whenever these mag mounts are within about 2 inches of a car roof. I like to keep my new equipment as close to FACTORY ALIGNMENT as possible. No "NOTICEABLE" degradation of performance is noted thus far, but I do not have the factory test equipment nor the alignment specs available to determine whether any "detuning" has occurred in my radio. I suggest sending mag mounts in their own separate shipping boxes well padded so that the magnet is in the CENTER of the box as far away from the 6 outer sides as possible rather than being placed directly on top of the radio box. BTWR is a GREAT company & I have confidence that they will investigate this possible concern and take corrective action if required. Thanks for a GREAT Black Friday deal!

    This looks to be a really nice radio. I haven't installed it yet but hoping it will turn out great. Sadly the radio shipped with parts floating around in the mfg box and the mfg box itself was not fully shut. Glad it was at least double boxed for shipping. BTWR sent me the parts that were loose in case I am missing anything but this should not be how a radio ships from either a mfg or the retailer.
