Anyone know where to buy a DRM receiver?
Its becoming a regular transmission mode e.g. The Bayerischer Rundfunk will
broadcast from 2 May on 6085 khz in DRM.


You can find a list of equipment and receivers at the DRM homepage:

My personal favourite is Mayah DRM receiver 2100

+++++++++++++++++++++

So there is one real radio out of all the listed units.

They don't tell you much about it, not even how much power it takes.

An observation here is that although is looks to be a portable in looks
and physical size they only tell you that it operates on AC power with
no mention of the batteries?

21 X 7 X 13 cm
8.25 X 2.75 X 5.1 inches with rounding

Hey, I found a operating guide on line.

You are not going to be toting this around as it takes a 1 amp power
supply and it weighs a little over 1.5 lb and the power adapter weighs
another + 1 lb. (Page 7)

Not to mention that you will need a very long power cord.
