For One and All,

Up for your consideration is the simple fact that up until now
the USA and "The World as a whole has had a uniform general
Standard of {Common Reality} of an Analog AM/MW Radio Band;
an FM Radio Band and Shortwave Radio Bands. This allowed
a World-Wide-Commonality at least in some Radio/Receiver
Circuitry.

Does the Digital Radio Future Offer the same opportunity for a
World-Wide-Commonality in some Radio/Receiver Circuitry.

WHAT ABOUT - AM / FM DIGITAL RADIO ?

Will the be a unique Digital Radio Design for AM/FM Radios
built for sale in the USA ?

And a completely different Digital Radio Design for AM/FM Radios
built for sale in The-Rest-of-the-World ?

Will Digital AM/FM Radios sold in Mexico and Canada be using
the USA Digital Strandards or the Univeral Standard of The-Rest-
of-the-World ? Will Americans have to have a Second Radio to
Listen to Digital Radio Transmissions from The-Rest-of-the-World
including Mexico and Canada ?

What is the Canadian AM/FM Digital Radio Standard ?

What is the Mexican AM/FM Digital Radio Standard ?

What is the European AM/FM Digital Radio Standard ?
- - - Who Will Africa Follow ?

What is the Japanese & Korean AM/FM Digital Radio Standard ?
- - - What Will The Rest of Asia Do ?

What will become of the standard 'portable' AM / FM Shortwave Radio ?


WHAT ABOUT - DIGITAL RADIO MONDIALE (DRM) ? ? ?

With Respect To - Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) will the next
generation of built for sale in the USA AM/FM Shortwave Radios
have DRM as part of their built-in Circuitry ?
About - Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM)
DRM = http://www.drm.org/.

Or in the future, will their be a new breed of Stand-Along Shortwave
Radio/Receivers that are "Shortwave Only" with built-in DRM Circuitry ?

GOING DIGITAL - Seems to be many paths headed-off in many
National {USA} or Regional {Europe} directions where the World
Wide Radio Listener is that last consideration [.]
