In programming both my KG935G and mobile (TK-8180), I'm trying to decide between narrow or wide--specifically with Ch 15-22. A lot of this revolves around outdoor recreation situations wherein a few of us have GMRS but most have FRS. We tend to set all radios within Ch 15-22 so our GMRS mobiles can be used full power to talk to FRS. So, 1-14 is set on narrow (just in case). Repeater channels are always wide. But, what is best within Ch 15-22 where our GMRS (both HT and mobile) are used to communicate with both FRS and GMRS? Between the two types of radios, it's most critical that we can hear and be heard from the FRS (for example, a situation where a FRS user is lost)--does that mean a narrow setting is best for Ch 15-22? THANKS
