["Stefan Hagedorn" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hallo Liste, Hallo Christoph;

Danke für die Info.
Da bin ich mal gespannt, was mein Digital World Traveller dazu sagen
wird :-)

Mangels Programmauswahl habe ich diesen die letzte Zeit nur wenig
benutzt.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

> cover Europe using DRM sky-wave transmission and directional antennas
> that

> higher reliability in urban areas from the transmitter site located in
> Bulgaria. Telefunken has supplied the modulator and exciter for the
> service.

> WRN will encode both DRM services at its central London headquarters,
