Which of the following describes DMR?

  • A.A technique for time-multiplexing two digital voice signals on a single 12.5 kHz repeater channel (correct answer)
  • B.An automatic position tracking mode for FM mobiles communicating through repeaters
  • C.An automatic computer logging technique for hands-off logging when communicating while operating a vehicle
  • D.A digital technique for transmitting on two repeater inputs simultaneously for automatic error correction

WhyDMR is a technique for time-multiplexing two digital voice signals on a single 12.5 kHz repeater channel. DMR uses time-division multiplexing to fit two separate digital voice conversations into the time slots of a single 12.5 kHz repeater channel, effectively doubling that channel's capacity, answer A. B and C describe unrelated APRS-style tracking and vehicle-logging functions, and D invents a dual-input transmission scheme that isn't how DMR actually works.
