\"\"<\/a>DRM Test Broadcast on 954 kHz from Transmitter in Czech Republic (DRM Consortium)<\/a><\/h2>\n

DRM is now on air in the Czech Republic, on a medium wave channel that used to carry a powerful AM signal. It is broadcast on 954kHz (power reported as 3kW) from the ?esk\u00e9 Bud?jovice transmitter site, located in the South Bohemian region re-using the old AM antenna with a modulator connected to the existing 30 kW AM transmitter.<\/p>\n

The DRM transmission on 954kHz was even received in the country using a KiwiSDR.<\/p>\n

This is a trial of DRM within the Czech Republic and is scheduled to come to an end possibly in the second half of 2023. The content is supplied by\u00a0Radio\u017eurnal,<\/strong>\u00a0a news and journalism station that broadcasts 24 hours a day covering events at home and abroad. The station also carries music in between the news segments.<\/p>\n

One of the listeners receiving the DRM signal in the country reported: \u201cFrom my listening on the remote receivers, it seems to me that a few low-powered AM transmitters could cover the whole country\u201d.
