At the 2007 World Radiocommunicaton Conference (WRC-07) in Geneva, 
the International Telecommunication Union approved the DRM system for 
use in tropical-band broadcasting.

Since 2002, the ITU has endorsed DRM for international broadcasting in the 
long-, medium- and shortwave frequency bands, with the exception of the 
tropical zone 120, 90 and 60 meter bands. These bands are the frequencies 
near the lower end of the shortwave spectrum reserved for domestic 
broadcasting purposes in countries located roughly between 30 degrees 
North and South latitudes.

The ITU has now sanctioned the implementation of DRM between 3,200 
and 5,900 kHz, thus opening up a significant market for broadcasting in 
tropical areas.

"The recognition of the DRM system is now totally worldwide for all digital 
radio applications of various types around the world in the traditional 
broadcasting bands below 30 MHz - longwave, medium-wave and 
shortwave," said Donald Messer, DRM representative at the WRC.

Additionally, the DRM Consortium is testing an adaptation of its system to 
VHF bands I and II. When complete, the system will be available for 
worldwide use in all terrestrial broadcasting bands up to and including the 
FM band (VHF band II). ________________________
