Just like digital cellphones. We all know how
much it easier it is
to hear someone in a marginal area on digital, right? Why, rather than
just a fade out or a burst of static, we get a burst of encoded noise,
and a dropped call. Yea, that's progress!

Do you have any idea how crystal clear analog cell phones are with the rest
of the world using digital? Up until last year when I retired my Nokia 100 I
was getting crystal clear reception all over.
