it looks like it may be a MA'AH updatehttp://www.thiecom.de/drm2010/index.htm.
Costs $380 delivered worldwide. The MA'AH was something over $800 and
apparently didn't sell to well (funny that). Bo these sets are mains
powered only so they obviously have a poweer hungry DSP on board which
leads me to believe the same manufacturer.

P.S I see a Euro 199 price about 150$US sans P+P

Looks like it receives traditional AM as well, so you should still be
able to use it for something five years from now.

I infer from that that DRM will fizzle out? I talked to the RNZI
engineer sometime ago and Andrian said their main purpose for DRM was
to send a high quality signal to places (read Islands) that cannot
either afford of have sattelite and or internet (real expensive in the
Tropics) services for rebroadcast e.g. by LPFM.
Really useful for us Island folk as their(RNZI) cyclone alert and
hourly update service is better that great! The also have an excellent
Pacific news service which is faster that our local newspapers and
edited (censored)local TV.
For this these puposes I myself welcome this "technical inovation" for
the aformentioned uses. However I can appreciate the other side of the
coin in "built up" populations, the noise factor.

Most people will never be interested in international broadcasting as
such, regardless of signal "quality". To argue otherwise is akin to
arguing that men will begin finding Rosie O'Donnell attractive if we
simply broadcast higher and higher resolution images of her.

The resolution ain't the problem!
