Overview of the GME XRS-330C UHF CB Radio

The GME XRS-330C is a super compact UHF CB radio built for 4WD touring, daily driving, and long trips across Australia. The hideaway unit sits behind the dash or under the seat, so your cabin stays clean. The microphone holds the screen and controls, which makes it easier to use when you drive on rough tracks or busy roads. The design keeps the main unit out of the way while still giving you clear reception, strong signal performance, and fast access to the features that matter on long travel days.

This model uses XRS Connect technology, Bluetooth control, and a high-contrast OLED screen on the professional grade speaker microphone. You can manage scan lists, check local frequencies, and update the radio via the app on your phone. The mic houses a powerful 2-watt speaker, which stays loud and crisp in older 4WDs, noisy cabins, or when wind and tyres drown out normal audio. The system works as a two-way radio for mates, convoys, and local comms when you camp or travel remote.

The XRS-330C suits drivers who want a rugged Australian-made UHF that stays hidden but still works fast. The open platform and software-upgradable design keep it fresh with new features, and the scan engine reacts quickly on changing channels or busy areas. It works well with a matched GME antenna for better reception and range. A 5-year warranty supports the radio long term, which makes it one of the most trusted units used across Australia by touring drivers and local crews.

Features of the GME XRS-330C

XRS Connect Smart Platform
The XRS-330C runs on the GME XRS Connect platform. It uses Bluetooth to link the radio to your phone so you can control key functions from the app. The platform is designed to be smart, adaptable, and rugged for in-vehicle use.

Software Upgradable via the App
The XRS Connect App lets you update the radio software using your phone’s internet connection. New features and improvements are pushed through the app at no extra cost. This keeps the unit current without changing hardware.

Create and Share Scan Lists
You can build up to 8 scan lists with a total of 400 frequencies stored in the app. These can include channels between 403–520 MHz, not just standard UHF CB channels. You can also share these lists with other XRS Connect users so a whole group can run the same setup.

ScanSuite™ and Super-Fast Scan
XRS radios include ScanSuite for virtual private group comms. The scan engine works up to 25% faster than earlier GME models and up to four times faster than many rival UHF radios. This helps you pick up active channels quicker when you drive, travel, or work with a team.

Easy to Use XRS Connect App
The app works with most modern phones and tablets running Android 5.0 or iOS 9.0 and above. It gives instant access to over 20,000 registered analogue receive frequencies across Australia and New Zealand. You can also use the app as a secondary screen to see channel and radio status.

Easy Reset and Factory Defaults
If a setting gets changed by mistake, you can restore it through the app. A full factory reset is available through the app or the controller microphone. This makes it simple to get back to a known setup.

High-Contrast OLED Microphone Display
The speaker microphone uses a high contrast OLED screen for a bright, clear view. It stays readable in strong sunlight and has an anti-glare display for day use and night work. This puts channel and status info in your hand, right where you talk and listen.

2-Watt Speaker Microphone with ClearSound DSP
The mic houses a 2-watt front-facing speaker tuned for noisy cabins. GME’s ClearSound DSP helps keep voice audio clear and strong at higher volumes. This works well in older 4WDs, work utes, and vehicles with high road and engine noise.

Customisable Microphone Buttons
The microphone has two customisable buttons. You can assign common radio functions to these, such as scan, priority channel, or quick access to a favourite channel. This makes the radio faster to use from the wheel.

Open Platform for Custom Apps
The XRS platform is open for custom app development. This allows advanced users and partners to build apps that control radio functions in more specific ways. It gives room to grow for fleets, specialist users, and technical setups.

Australian Made with Long Warranty
The XRS-330C is Australian made and built for heat, dust, and rough roads. It comes with a GME 5-year warranty, plus one extra year when you download and register the XRS Connect App. Your purchase is also backed by local consumer guarantees for extra peace of mind.
