Moderated Re: Do we have Too Many Digital Modes


 

The manufacturers saw a good idea and jumped to be first and lock in their product line as the best.

We have several voice protocols now: AM, FM, and SSB. The better radios support all as they are in the public domain now.

Will the best digital mode emerge like VHS beat Betamax or will we have a bunch for a while going forward?

I have noticed that Kenwood put D-Star on a HT. Is that the start of a trend? The marketplace is going to decide who has the best feature set for the right price point.

Currently, I have YSF, DMR, and D-Star so I can learn about all 3.

There should be one standard
Consider SSB:
There is only one SSB with its inherent feature of upper sideband or lower sideband!
There is no SSB-mod Icom
There is no SSB-mod Kenwood
There is no SSB-mod Yaesu
There is no SSB-mod ABC
There is no SSB-mod XYZ............ad nauseam
