Austria will test DRM (and currently testing DAB+)

Digital radio has already come to Austria. As previously reported in
DRU, testing of DAB+ transmission is in its second year there.

Nevertheless, proponents of the DRM system, an alternative means of
digital transmission, are not deterred, and are assisting in a DRM
trial in Austria, according to DRM news.

The annual technical meeting of the non-commercial broadcasters in
Austria organized by COMMIT (Community and Media Institute Austria)
took place in St Polten earlier this month.

Detlef Pagel, vice chairman of the German DRM Platform, presented an
update on DRM activities worldwide and demonstrated a frequency
planning set-up based on DRM+ in VHF band III suitable for local
broadcast. (DRM+ is the name given to use of the DRM standard when
operated at VHF).
