New DRM receiver available
I would hope that it covers more than the standard MW range - I'm
still waiting for a reply. Haven't seen any reviews at all for it yet - I'd be interested in finding out its performance! There's a slightly different version of their specs sheet on their website (little difference apart from it being marked as v2.0): http://www.codingtechnologies.com/pr...aveller_v2.pdf ...Francis |

Hi,
I finally got a reply from Coding Technologies just a few mintues ago: "the freq ranges are 88-108 MHz FM and 150-29999 kHz AM/DRM" Sounds good to me!

I don't know that much about DRM, but my understanding is that stations either come in very clearly or not at all. In other words, if there's a really distant station, you can't dig it out of the mud and just have to write it off. Is that correct? If so, I don't think I'd want a DRM receiver. But again, I could be wrong about this. Steve |
