Default Why don't voice radio communications use FM?

I suspect that the (incorrect) sense that FM is better than AM comes
from broadcast stations. I think broadcast FM uses more channel space
than broadcast AM, and it is =that= which gives higher fidelity, for the
most part.

Don't be fooled. It's the bandwidth, not the encoding.
