[RVRC] YAESU's announcement, strategy and arguments on digital ham radio

[N2GJ_AMSAT]

I believe this booklet should be read by all of us who may be
contemplating digital communications on the VHF/UHF bands.  I wondered
when another manufacturer would present an alternative to D-STAR.
I've always been a little troubled by the fact that no other brands
seemed eager to adopt this "standard."  This booklet offers some
cogent arguments for considering other types of encoding.  Thanks for
sharing, Marvin!  73,
