besides the LTR trunking, and channel capacity....

The CM300 UHF only comes in 438-470 MHZ where the PM400 UHF has two available frequency models, 438-470 OR 465-490

The opposite is true for the VHF models the PM400 VHF is only available 146-174 Mhz, and the CM300 is available in 146-174 or 136-162 MHz.

There are also some additional signalling features with the PM400. Some additional MDC features, like individual call, check status and DTMF signalling that the CM's do not have.
