Cellular radio is not packetized voice.  It's just plain, old 800 Mhz
transmissions, which you can receive on an old UHF TV if you feel like
wasting your time that way.  The "cells" simply handle particular
regions and switch the voice connection from cell to cell as
necessary for a moving vehicle.  In the future, there may be
digitized/scrambled voice channels for cellular radio--but that
hasn't happened yet.
