If there's spare spectrum at UHF for digital broadcasts, then Eureka 147
is the way to go. The standard was specifically chosen for VHF/UHF use
and is (at least technically) proven in many countries.


Eureka 147 has a very good RF transmission system combined with an
obsolete audio codec (MP2) that causes severe spectrum inefficiency (by a
factor of at least 2x) compared to what could be achieved with a state of
the art codec. OTOH, Eureka 147, modified with the AAC / AACPlus codec,
would be a killer system.
