SLM Media Council launches simulcast funding

In order to ensure the journalistic diversity of commercial radio stations in the Free State of Saxony and to further promote the migration from FM to DAB+, the Media Council of the Saxony Media Authority (SLM) agreed in its meeting on 28 February 2023 on funding for simulcast broadcasting and adopted a corresponding statute. Funding is available to broadcasters of commercial radio stations based in Saxony who, on the basis of corresponding licences from the SLM, broadcast their programmes simultaneously in digital terrestrial (DAB+) and analogue terrestrial (FM) via transmitter sites located in Saxony.
