Digital Radio Mondiale: First DRM+, multi-standard receiver and new lower cost, durable DRM Receiver unveiled at IBC

Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) has got off to a flying start at this year's IBC event in Amsterdam. IBC is the leading global tradeshow for broadcasters and media professionals and attracts over 150,000 visitors every year from over 160 countries worldwide.

DRM's first event was hosted by key Consortium member, GatesAir. They unveiled their DRM+ G4 Exgine card offering a quick DRM digital upgrade solution for their range of Flexiva FM transmitters, developed in association with another leading DRM Consortium member, RFmondial.  During this event, two new DRM receivers, including the first DRM+ receiver were displayed to the public.

New Consortium member, Gospell Digital Technology presented the GR-216 which works in DRM30, AM and FM stereo. The other receiver unveiled today, PatronX Titus II offers an SDR android tablet solution for DRM and analogue, being in effect both a DRM+ and a multi-standard receiver. These new radios demonstrate the growing interest from receiver manufacturers in producing DRM capable solutions.  As part of the event an Avion DRM digital radio was offered as a prize.
