Spain's RNE begins regular DRM broadcasts on mediumwave
Radio Nacional de España (RNE) today begins regular digital radio
transmissions on mediumwave, with which it becomes a pioneer of the DRM
system. RNE explained that from now on digital and analogue transmissions
will share the same frequency, "until we migrate definitively to digital
technology, giving the capacity for a greater number of quality programmes
on mediumwave, similar to FM, with additional multimedia services and the
possibility of automatic tuning." According to RNE the innovative character
of digital technology on mediumwave has made it necessary to conduct a
series of tests and the putting into operation of an experimental DRM system
on mediumwave permitting the possibilities of the system to be explored. For
that reason, a year ago a collaboration agreement was signed a year ago
between RNE, the University of the Basque Country and the company VIMESA,
for the accomplishment of these tests.

The DRM transmissions are coming from the Arganda transmitting centre, with
10 kW power on 1359 kHz. This morning a special half-day conference was held
at the RTVE headquarters in Madrid to mark the launch
