[HCDX] Launch of HCJB/IBB DRM trial broadcasts on August 17



The HCJB Global Technology Center, based in Elkhart, IN, USA in cooperation
with the International Broadcasting Bureau, will begin a series of digital
broadcast test transmissions on shortwave starting on August 17. The
demonstration broadcasts are using IBB transmission facilities on the east
coast of the USA and a DRM exciter and content server developed by the HCJB
Global Technology Center. The broadcasts are operating at an average DRM
power of approximately 8 kW using a rhombic antenna aimed at 45 degrees on
15475 kHz from 2000 to 2200 UTC for reception in Europe and a log periodic
antenna aimed at 306 degrees on 9405 kHz from 0000 to 0400 UTC for reception
in North America. The broadcasts are expected to continue for at least
several weeks. Reception reports can be emailed to ibbhcjb@xxxxxxxxx

Global Technology Center.
