Steve:

Very interesting!  can you give me the setting for wide band FM, and I'll
try it?

I never thought of that.

I don't have time to look it up in the manual right now, because I'm getting
ready to set up a communications net for a 5K run in our local area this
afternoon, so if you could look it up for me, I'd appreciate it.  Somehow, I
think it's around menu 28 or 29, but could be wrong.
