Analog two-way radio has limited battery life, degrading voice quality near at the edge of coverage, and lacks integrated data applications. Additionally, as analog radio users reach their licensed spectrum capacity, crowding the interference occurs. These users can easily justify migrating to the digital technology of MOTOTRBO because they need clear, unbroken, reliable communications. A missed call, user error, garbled message or a dead battery can mean lowered productivity, wasted time and money, unsatisfied customers, interruptions to essential services, or lost business.
As an irregular user of TRBO radios, I find that the batteries on them also go dead, there is little or no voice quality at the edge of coverage, and my overall productivity is extremely low...though the last item may be personal rather than technology-based.
Also, "crowding the interference"? Engrish at the finer spectral capacity of you happy 3-way radio user!
What a load of hogwash.
