You are sadly right, and on that day I will depend entirely on mobile 2-way
radio for communications.
I'd rather hear a bit of static any day as opposed to bits of garbled digital
mess.
It's frustrating to me that cell phones with ring tones, cameras and games are
better sellers than quality audio.
They say the old brick phones (like mine) cause cancer. I say the tiny digital
phones cause stress!
The carriers in my area already look at the analogue channels as secondary,
unimportant lines.
