Norway has completed the transition to digital broadcasting standards, thus becoming the first country in the world to completely abandon the analog FM radio at the national level. This is reported by The Guardian. On Wednesday, December 13, in strict accordance with the schedule, the northernmost regions of the country, as well as the Svalbard archipelago crossed the digital broadcasting (in the DAB standard), says the Digitalradio Norge (DRN) industrial group, representing the interests of public and commercial radio stations in Norway. The transition to the figure, which began on January 11, will provide an improvement in sound quality, as well as an increase in the number of broadcast programs and the possibility of introducing additional functions. And all this - as experts say - only for one-eighth of the cost of FM broadcasting. However, this step was met with some degree of skepticism caused by some technical problems, as well as the statement that coverage by the DAB signal in the country is not enough. In addition, radio listeners also complained that to buy a new receiver or adapter you have to spread from 100 to 200 euros. According to DRN, only 49% of drivers can now listen to DAB programs in the cabin of their car. Local media refer to research data, according to which over the past year the number of Norwegians listening to radio daily decreased by 10%, and the public broadcaster NRK lost 21% of its audience. "This is a big change, and we should give our listeners time to adapt to digital radio," said DRN head Ole Jorgen Torvmark. - After the termination of analogue broadcasting in this or that region, we initially observed a decrease in the number of radio listeners, however, then their number increased again. " The transition to digital broadcasting only affected national radio networks. Most of the local stations continue analogue broadcasting in the FM band. In the coming years, a number of other countries are going to follow Norway's example - in particular, Switzerland, Great Britain and Denmark.

Broadcasts from Taipei to HF continue, reassured Vitali. Ahead, he said, the 90th anniversary of RTI and the traditional "Republic of China" quiz. Vitali also responded positively to my request to publish announcements and images of new QSL-cards in one of the sections of their site, as the French edition does.

This was discussed during the briefing of the National Council on December 21. The contest has 14 seats in the 7-D channel, which will provide synchronous broadcasting of two transmitters. This gives an opportunity for the appearance in Kiev of 14 new niche and format radio stations, said a member of the National Council Sergei Kostinsky. Digital transmitters will be installed at the sites of the RRT Concern for two years to implement the digital radio implementation project in Kiev. At the first stage - in January-June 2018 in Kiev two transmitters with a capacity of 2 and 1 kW will be installed, so in the second half of next year the first radio stations will be launched. A year later, it is planned to install a transmitter in Brovary, which will significantly improve the coverage of the signal from the left bank of Ukraine. The operator of the multichannel network will be the Concern of Broadcasting, Radio Communication and Television. The company has the best resource support from the point of view of organization and technical support of broadcasting both in Kiev and throughout Ukraine. To expand the network, RRT Group plans to purchase modern transmission equipment and multiplexing equipment from leading domestic manufacturers and manufacturers in Germany, Italy and Slovenia.

When implementing digital radio to provide the same volume of broadcasting, it will be enough from 2 to 6 radio transmitters with a total capacity of up to 10 kW. Sergei Kostinsky called the advantages of introducing digital broadcasting. They are: 1. A significant increase in the variety of programs and the diversity of the radial formats available for city listeners, thanks to the use of the 174-230 MHz band; 2. Stimulating the development of the market: providing new independent (niche, regional) radio stations with the ability to broadcast in Kiev in the conditions of exhaustion of the radio frequency resource in the range of 87.5 - 108.0 MHz; 3. Preservation of broadcasting of TV and radio companies that have a license for broadcasting in Kiev in the VHF band and are experiencing a crisis due to the unpopularity of the band and accordingly have an outflow of radio listeners; 4. Improving the quality of service needs of radio listeners through the organization of broadcasting of radio stations using innovative technologies; 5. Reducing the energy intensity of radio networks with an increase in the number of programs; 6. Creating conditions for the development of an additional industry direction in the production of transmitters and receivers. The T-DAB standard is recommended by the European Broadcasting Union as a pan-European system. The frequency band is 174 - 230 MHz. III range allocated to the needs of the T-DAB system in accordance with the Regional Agreement "Geneva - 2006" (Source: National Council website).

In accordance with the Law on Public Television and Radio Broadcasting in Ukraine, the budget of NOTUT shall be 0.2% of the state budget.

Dmitry Khorkin explained that this transmitter is evening, when the sun goes down, and there is no interference, the signal is audible far away. It is important that the radio can be easily caught, this requires a simple receiver and batteries. Recall, on the air of the "Ukrainian Radio" broadcasts "Radio Crimea. Reality." Earlier, Sergei Kostinsky reported that in the Crimea, "Ukrainian Radio / Radio Crimea. Realia" is broadcasting on the peninsula at frequencies of 549 kHz and 100.7 MHz. We will add, the Ukrainian broadcasting from the TV-radio tower, which is located near the checkpoint Chongar in the Kherson region, reaches the suburb of Sudak in an anonymous Crimea. Source: Portal "Public Broadcasting". For Russia, the status of the Crimea is indisputable: it is the territory of the Russian Federation. Crimea joined the Russian Federation after a referendum held on the peninsula in March 2014, where more than 95% of the population voted for joining the Russian Federation.
