"Digital" is just code for wideband, which is (a) rarely required for
analogue transmissions that are designed to be in in-band (except maybe

A digital spec aerial is a great deal more than just a "wideband". In fact
an aerial can have been passed as conforming without being wideband. The
differences are manyfold, not the least of which is the prescence of a
balun.
