barkerdl Posted July 1, 2016 Report Posted July 1, 2016 I am setting up a Midland Titan for GMRS. Is it best to use the wide or narrow TX settings for Las Vegas, NV repeaters? Thanks! Dennis Quote

0 mainehazmt Posted July 6, 2016 Report Posted July 6, 2016 I believe you can do it anyway you want. Personally I'd go with wide. I look at it as a 4 lane highway Allowing more traffic and faster vs going to a 2 lane trying to jam the same amount of traffic And have seen loss of range with narrow banding. This is my unscientific thought process. Quote
0 n4gix Posted July 6, 2016 Report Posted July 6, 2016 The most noticeable effect of narrow band being received by a wide band receiver is a severe loss of volume... Quote
0 VegasUnderworld Posted July 7, 2016 Report Posted July 7, 2016 Most of our repeaters around Vegas are on mountain tops. You won't notice a difference between wide or narrow. Quote
