ive only had a radio for a couple weeks myself and only used it twice. I can tell you that 16 is the emergency channel in case of a distress call. From what ive seen 72 and 68 seem to be commonly used. And i know if your in DP several local guys who fish here a lot have recommended 72 to me when fishing locally. Besides that im about as lost as you are.
