I am wondering how much penetration digital voice (Like DMS) currently has with ham radio in the US and worldwide. Does anyone know the approximate numbers?
I know that there is a LONG history of analog with ham radio. I recently learned that there is a real MIXED BAG of digital adoption with US police, fire & EMS.
I am wondering what the current status of digital technology is with ham radio (in the US and worldwide).

I hear about as much total traffic on the DMR repeaters as I do on the analog ones, even though there are more analog repeaters out there.

I should also note that RadioID.net doesn't show totals for Yaesu Fusion or D-STAR. The former are affiliated (registered?) with Yaesu, and the latter has a separate callsign registration system.
