Years ago I used channel 8 with my MURS/FRS crossband repeater. I also used it for simplex operation. I can't remember my reasoning for picking that channel, though.
I rarely use it, it is usually dead, although when I have it on <rarely>, it is on channel 1. It is so short range..try MURS and you will notice a difference.....
I second that, try climbing up on top of a cell tower and tell me nobody is on FRS, in a typical suburban neighboorhood expect annoying and disrespectful little kids to be on just about every channel
