PCM Radios

PCM stands for Pulse Code Modulation. It digitizes the signal as binary code to provide an extremely accurate signal. PCM radios are considered high end units and start around $250 and can easily hit $1500 for the top of the line models. PCM radios are more common among professional racers or those who fly planes. For the hobbyist, an FM radio would probably be the better choice when weighing reliability and cost.
