"Digital Voice" (a la D-Star) has already been deemed to be "phone" as
the FCC defines it. The designations - right or wrong - are about the

SSB and AM are "phone" too, but that doesn't get them a space in the FM
repeater segment.

"But for" voluntary band plans, they could operate there without being
