I'm sorry, I don't begrudge anybody wanting to experiment with digital voice, but every time I listen to audio clips of DV I am appalled by the sound quality. I have to prefer SSB almost every single time.
The examples on that site of DV with a 20 dB SNR are pretty awful. Thy soun like litte slivrs of ound drop ut of thee sndstream and it drves e crzy. I wasn't even aware that there was a third letter in the VK5's suffix until I heard the original analog audio. Why are we so obsessed with occupied bandwidth? I just tuned the entire 20 meter phone band and heard a total of seven stations in that 200 kHz segment. The same goes for 40 at night. Is bandwidth really our biggest problem?
