Which vocoders are supported by the PRC-160?

• A. MELP ME6 & ME24, DV6 & DV24, CVSD - Continuously Variable Slope Delta (VHF/FM), Clear Voice
• B. MELP ME6, DV6, CVSD, Clear Voice
• C. MELP ME24, DV24, CVSD, Clear Voice
• D. MELP ME6 & ME24, DV6 & DV24, CVSD, Clear Voice

Answer: (A)

The PRC-160 is designed to operate across a variety of voice codecs to fit different network bandwidths and environments. It supports MELP ME6 and ME24, DV6 and DV24, CVSD, and Clear Voice. This wide codec support lets you choose a narrowband, secure MELP path, a digital voice path at two bitrates (DV6 and DV24), a standard CVSD path, or the Clear Voice mode for improved intelligibility in noisy conditions. Listing all these vocoders shows the radio’s interoperability and versatility; selecting a subset would miss some of the supported options.
