There are nine audio programmes on air (existing public and commercial broadcasters), and scrolling text as well as EPG have also been demonstrated to interested parties. The Auckland transmission site has recently been upgraded to a 1KW service and now provides coverage to the majority of the greater Auckland City region. Kordia is looking to infil the Auckland CBD coverage area, implement DAB+ and demonstrate more value added services as part of ongoing engineering and consumer trials over the next six months. Kordia is actively working with Government departments to enable the allocation of identified spectrum for a commercial deployment.
