But, for there are some indications about the possibility on the website
of Chris Mackerell in New Zealand. He has some interesting audio-samples
online: http://www.owdjim.gen.nz/chris/radio/DRM/

Including a repport of the number of audio-frames received and the audio
of it. (the only thing that I find a pitty is that these audio-samples
have been compress a second time using a lossy codec, creating a "codec
cascade" effect).


There are examples with a lot of packetloss and some with excellent
reception; some from as far as Europe (20000 km from New-Zealand).

Hi

Thanks for the mention.

I've been watching this thread with interest, but keeping out of the
"debate" :-). When I started putting my DRM recordings on my website
I was on a very expensive internet connection. It's much cheaper
now, and I still have the original .wav files of most of the recordings,
so I might re-encode some of the files at a higher quality.

DRM here has always been very unpredictable, because no-one beams
anything our way. Mind you, the same goes for most major international
broadcasters these days :-(

I understand that RNZI are currently awaiting delivery of a shipment
of Sangean DRM receivers - I'll be interested to see what they are
like.

But, the best it to try it out yourself. (but I don't have a DRM radio
neither, so who am I to say what you should do. :-)))



Cheerio! Kr. Bonne.
