MURS has an odd deviation limit on three channels.
http://www.provide.net/~prsg/mursrule.htm#95.631
---------------
"5.632 MURS transmitter frequencies.

(a) The MURS transmitter channel frequencies are
151.820 MHz,
151.880 MHz
151.940 MHz
154.570 MHz
154.600 MHz.

(b) The authorized bandwidth is 11.25 kHz on frequencies 151.820
MHz,
151.880 MHz and 151.940 MHz. The authorized bandwidth is 20.0 kHz on
frequencies 154.570 and 154.600 MHz.

(c) MURS transmitters must maintain a frequency stability of 5.0
ppm,
or 2.0 ppm if designed to operate with a 6.25 kHz bandwidth.
---------------------------------------------------------------
PRSG Comment: The use of conventional NBFM ("narrowband FM")
transmitters, those having a maximum deviation of +/- 5 KHz, is again
permissible on the two MURS 154 MHz frequencies. On the three MURS 151
MHz frequencies, only the narrower deviation (+/- 2.5 KHz) is now
permitted.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Out units are five channels and have +/-2.5KHz deviaiton on
all 5 channels.

Other then type acceptance, I guess you could clip the magic diode in
an Icom IC28/A/H and turn down the power and use it on two MURS freqs.

Any ham transceiver with a 2W or lower power setting and a half deviation
capability would satisfy the "spirit" of the regulations, however the type
acceptance issue sometimes gives rise to a heated debate. But since a large
number of potential MURS users are not hams, the general unavailability of
low cost, type accepted HTs alongside the FRS/GMRS bubble-pack radios is one
of the big reasons why MURS didn't catch on. I briefly used my Yaesu VX-150
for MURS, but I don't really have any reason to use MURS any more. The only
activity I hear in my area is on the upper two channels, and is always
business-related--probably hold-overs from when the channels were licensed.
It's a shame it didn't catch on because it's a great service.
