I agree with Telamon - the sound quality of DRM is terrible. If you compare
and contrast a DRM transmission from Sackville versus an analog transmission
from the same location - at the same time - analog wins.

Yesterday I was listening to Radio Sweden's DRM transmission via
Sackville, NB, Canada, on 9800kHz at 2330 UTC, on my modified Ten-Tec
RX-350 receiver. The program consisted of mostly music, and I must
admit, DRM is nice. The audio quality is simply unmatched on
shortwave. It was very easy to forget that this was a shortwave
transmission, it sounded like a local station. No clicks, no pops, no
qsb (fading), just very easy to listen to music.

If you get a chance to try out DRM reception, give it a shot. You
will like it. (Not affiliated with DRM in any way, just a happy
listener.)


I listened to a number of example recordings on the DRM website and did
not like the sound quality at all. I found voice more annoying than the
music examples. Report back when you get a chance to listen to a voice
transmission.
