You can't compare apples for apples this way, at least not as these things are used in the REAL WORLD
It is IMPROPER to compare an analog and digital system on SNR because they are very different beasts. Of course the digital will outperform the analog system one it get sa lower BER. The test should be , at what power level can you achieve a readability 5 conversation ? , at what power level can you achieve a readability 3 conversation ? The power level requird should be normalized for a 0dB noise figure (so the front end of the receiver system is taken out of the equation) Why ? because that is how we use our radios. however I have no doubt that with a modem operating with a SSB radio, it will outperform the FM radio hands down.
