AFAIK they only do digital. But the support from Nordic is very promp and to the point, you could ash
them. There is indeed a non-Shockburst mode in the Nordic chips (perhaps Laipac has disabled it...). So,
if you combine this with some AD and DA conversion, voice might be possible.

Don't live in the US, don't know the FCC rules, I guess Nordic should know this.
