main stream with Walkie Talkies ?

that's very ill-defined ... what do you mean by mainstream ?

for CB radio AM is the most common with some FM

For amateur radio and commercial use handhelds are usually FM and in later days and particularly for commercial security use ( police, military etc), digital is used

Narrow band FM?, this is what was used years ago by the Police/fire service etc.

In your other thread you were asking how much is the output power of a walkie talkie that uses only 3 transistors. Then it is a cheap child's toy and is surely AM.
