DAB+: Network expansion in Saxony
MDR is expanding its DAB+ transmitter network in Saxony with the new Zwickau location. DAB+ coverage in these regions will be further improved and stabilised with immediate effect. "We are already very well positioned with digital radio reception in Central Germany. The task now is to close individual gaps in coverage and to optimise reception of all MDR radio programmes via DAB+ as a whole," says Niels Schulze, Head of Programme Distribution at MDR. The commissioning of the transmitter by MDR at the new transmitter mast erected by Deutsche Funkturm GmbH will enable better DAB+ coverage in the Zwickau region for approximately 140,000 inhabitants.
