MOTOTRBO seriously outperforms analog FM, given the same antenna system, power, etc. Engineering math, as well as on-the-air tests indicate that MOTOTRBO has a 3db 'advantage' over wideband analog FM. It has a 6 to 8 db 'advantage' over narrowband analog FM.

I have recently noticed on the DMR MARC site there is a Motorola Mototrbo repeater up and running in Massachusetts. I was listening to them testing it last week on MotoTRBO Amateur Networks - DCI/TRBO-6 and DMR-MARC Live Scanner Audio Feed

It appears to have extensive coverage around metro west and into Boston. I assume quality coverage is pretty much based on what people are running for antenna’s.

that's pretty cool
