Digital?


Most of what we call "digital" is NFM or SNFM.


Actually "Digital" is C4FM.


And the modulation on the carrier is??? AM? PM?? FM??

What bandwidth is it?

There's a difference between the process of putting information on the
carrier and the format that information comes in. The OP was asking
about the physical layer, as specified by "AM/FM ..." etc..


The standard is APCO 25, which defines BW to be 6Khz and Modulation as
C4FM.
