I don't understand how a digital cellphone can sound so clear and this digital scanner sounds like poop; if it isn't even garbled. Is it baudrate or modulation? What's the difference and will phse 2 be any better?

False. The throughput is less due to the nature of TDMA but the bandwidth is almost the same in terms of spectrum. Phase 1 operates at a 9600 bps data rate for both uplink and downlink. Phase 2 on the other hand operates on a 12000 bps downlink and 6000 bps uplink. In other words, the SU has to decode 12000 bps from the repeater (remember, same 9600 bps control channel Phase 1 uses) but only has to transmit at 6000 bps.Phase 2 has half the bandwidth of phase 1

I think cellphones sound pretty bad compared to good ole analog phones

You've obviously never lived in a rural area where static was the predominant component of analog cell audio...
