Rai’s latest technological innovations on DAB+

02.06.2026 - RAI - Radiotelevisione Italiana WorldDAB Member - Italy Italy

From 1 July 2026, Rai will be conducting a trial aimed at integrating the regional radio news service onto the DAB+ platform. The first phase of the trial will cover only those areas in the Aosta Valley region that are already covered by Rai’s DAB+ service, and, in the Piedmont region, the provinces of Turin, Cuneo, Asti and Alessandria. In these areas, during the broadcast of the regional radio news programmes (currently available only on Radio 1 via traditional analogue FM radio), it will be possible to access the regional news service by staying tuned to the DAB+ platform. During the rest of the day, Radio 1’s national programming will remain unchanged. Exclusively in the areas covered by the trial, following the reconfiguration of the DAB+ platform, from July 2026 users may need to retune their receivers.
