No - there are no affordable "consumer grade" ones yet.

I have an AOR AR-7030, FRG-100/DRM, Coding Technologies
"Digital World Traveller", plus a couple of old steam
powered receivers that I've fitted with Sat-Service
Schneider DRM modules.

Now I have a DRM station 10km away from me on 657 kHz, all these
receivers fail to decode the current DRM simulcast
tests that RNZ are doing, except for the '7030 and even
that has a hard time.

DRM simulcasting sucks this close to the transmitter.

On the plus side, the DRM signal doesn't interfere with
the AM signal.

Cheers, Chris
