blairy Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 DAB (or Eureka 147) has been superseded by DAB+. SMH DAB article Funny, but that purchase of a DAB radio does not seem like such a smart move now. Any clues as to what broadcasters need to do and how long it will take to move from DAB to DAB+.
alanh Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 Blairy, The link is to "The Australian" The other problem with the article is that the name of the system is not DAB+ it is DMB which is Digital Multimedia Broadcasting. This is what the World DMB calls the enhanced DAB system. AlanH
blairy Posted March 16, 2007 Author Posted March 16, 2007 Alan, not looking for an argument, but it seems that what should be called DMB will in Oz be know as DAB+. Suspect this is a marketing ploy as much as anything. Link to formal announcement on DRA site... (no mention of DMB). DRA DAB+ Announcement Mind you, if my current DAB radio works on Band 3 174.928 - 239.200MHz what will DAB+ (OK DMB ) receivers pick up? Cheers blairy
