Guide to Digital PMR

The digital Private Mobile Radio (dPMR) web site contains a guide to this digital Voice/Data mode for 6.25 kHz channel spacing.

dPMR is a digital technology designed for VHF/UHF that uses 4FSK/FDMA modulation and supports both voice and data. It operates with 6.25 kHz channel spacing instead of the 12.5 kHz channels required for FM (relevant ETSI standards TS 102 490 and TS 102 658).

On the dpmr-mou website under the drop-down menu "What is dPMR" are two guides titled 'I have 5 minutes' and 'I have 30 minutes', see http://www.dpmr-mou.org/
