I wrote NARROWER GMRS SPECS. I did not write narrowband. After more study I see some possible contridictions in the rules as currently written for example, F3E/G3E GMRS emissions (probably the most common) are limited to 20Khz bandwidth but at the same time those emission types are also limited

Gary, 5 kHz deviation with a 3 kHz audio cutoff creates a signal at least 13 kHz wide, counting only the first set of sidebands. That's why many states went from 15 kHz to a 20 kHz channel bandplan on 2m a few years ago. There's nothing inconsistent in the FCC imposing both limits. 73, Paul,

Thanks for that background info. I suppose that's one way to look at it but in my experience a mobile relay station now carries a different definition from the FCC as shown in Part 90.7 for example. They also define a fixed relay station so while at one time the term 'mobile relay station' may

Paul, the underlying and unexpected contridiction here was not between 15Khz vs. 20Khz channel spacing but instead between 20Khz and 25Khz channels more commonly found on UHF which as you know is where GMRS resides. Historically there's more than enough guard between channels to compensate for
