    Wide or narrow

    Hello, I'm wondering, when it comes to programing a radio to a ham repeater, do you set it as narrowband, mid, or wideband? Couldn't find much on it when researching. Thanks

    Do any yaesu HT do a 6.25 step narrowband

    Does anyone know if there is or "in the works" yaesu ht that does 6.25 step for the mandatory narrowband change of 2013. It's hard to believe that cheap Chinese market radios do this step but others don't, whats the deal?

    PSR-800 and Narrowbanding

    Is there anything I can do to improve the audio of a narrowband signal. Our Sheriff's Department went to narrowband. The signal is good but it sounds all digitized and is often difficult to understand. Thank you.
