BR plans new DAB+ site in the Bavarian Forest

The Bavarian Forest is one of the most difficult regions to cover in terms of radio technology. Despite numerous transmitter stations, there are still gaps in digital terrestrial radio reception. The Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation (BR) is now planning a new transmitter for digital radio DAB+ in the southern Bavarian Forest. On the Oberfrauenwald mountain near Waldkirchen in the district of Freyung-Grafenau, the state-wide package (channel 11D) and the regional bouquet of Lower Bavaria (channel 7D) are to be broadcast with a power of 6.3 kW. BR is also planning new transmitter sites at Balderschwang, Obernburg am Main and Pretzfeld.
