DAB+ needs commercial radio for further development, Czech Radio to launch eight new transmitters this year

For the development of DAB+ digital radio broadcasting in the Czech Republic, it is essential that private radio stations also join in. Karel Zýka, director of the Czech Radio's Administration and Technology Department, said this at the Radiokomunikace 2022 conference on Tuesday 18 October.
