Re: [DX] Taas yksi AM-asema lopettaa
Intialla on nÃkÃaloja tulevaisuuteen.
En kommentoi, onko jalat maassa vai pilvissÃ.
Tuo mainittu switchover vuosi 2017 tuntuu hÃtÃiseltÃ.
Tottahan siellà joka ukko ja akka on valmis ostamaan
DRM vastaanottimen kun analogilÃhetykset syrjÃseuduille loppuvat....

AMSTERDAM â At IBC2014 the Digital Radio Mondiale Consortium unveiled the
first DRM AM receiver designed to
comply with the relevant Indian specifications and to be fit for global use.
The Avion AV-DR-1401 from Communications Systems Inc. allows DRM
reception in the shortwave and medium-wave bands, as well as analog AM and
FM
reception.
âInterest in India toward DRM keeps growing. Even though we
have some issues, such as a few industry stakeholders still trying to turn
the
attention to FM networks instead of concentrating on DRM, our governmentâs
commitment is strong and clear,â said Ankit Agrawal, director of
Communications
Systems Inc.
According to public service broadcaster All India Radioâs
website, they are targeting 2017 as the complete switchover to digital mode
date.
âAbout one year ago AIR issued a tender for the supply of DRM
receivers,â explained Agrawal. âThey definitely raised the bar as to
technical
specifications by grouping together the most appealing features from the
various
receivers available on the market at that time. I took those specifications
and considered them a challenge and I asked my
engineers to design a receiver capable of meeting or possibly exceeding AIRâs
requirements.â
AIRâs specifications include a four-line text display, ER-AAC+, CELP and
HVXC codecs,
stereo speakers, a minimum of 40 programmable station presets, USB or SD
slot
with read/write capability, instant recording and playback capability from
external storage, upgradable firmware and at least six hours of battery
life.
Agrawal showcased the official prototype of the new receiver at the IBC
Show and attendees were able to hear its audio quality during a live
transmission from an Ampegon transmitter. âWe are ready to launch a first
production batch of about 1,000 receivers,â he said. âThey should be
delivered
within the end of this year. Then we will be ready to launch a second batch,
definitely much larger.â
The Avion AV-DR-1401 will be positioned as an high-end product; it features
multimedia applications and local interactive text
and media (Journaline) as well as automatic tuning by station (not
frequency).
Agrawal expects a battery life of about 10 hours, pointing out that since
the
receiver is also capable of delivering emergency warning messages, a
long-lasting battery is necessary.
âWe are very pleased with the exciting announcement on this new Indian
receiver. With
sufficient orders and support it could do very well and start the receiver
ball
rolling demonstrating that global, green and extremely cost-effective DRM is
not
just the future of digital radio but a reality for listeners now.â âDavide
Moro
