So what's different about digital PMR446? Two major things really -channel spacing and speech quality. Modern digital modulation techniques allow the channel spacing to be halved for a given speech quality, giving 16 channels instead of 8. Even better news is that the maximum quality of speech is maintained right to the edge of the working range instead of gradually falling off.The working range is greater than analogue systems. The improved quality/range will be a real boon for commercial users as it should ensure messages get through successfully first time.It is also possible to send text messages that are readable by all members of the group. There is a new channel sharing system similar to CTCSS with 254 common ID codes so there is a huge range of combinations. The whole system is very private at the moment being so new and as yet no scanners can receive the transmissions.
