What is the point of digital voice when there are already AM, SSB
and FM for those who want to appear indistinguishable from CBers?

Perhaps it is cynicism from the manufacturers who introduce such things
as they see their traditional highly-priced corner of the market
being wiped away by SDR technologies?

Technical investigations for those with the requisite skill set. Isn't that
what you're always banging on about, OM? Inane babble (i.e. 95% of all
QSOs) is till inane babble regardless of whether it is transported by voice
or Morse code.
