RTVE presents its renewed push for DAB+ in Spain
RTVE has taken advantage of World Radio Day to present the reasons that have led the Spanish Corporation to launch DAB+ digital radio technology, a standard designed to "replace FM" in favour of quality and greater accessibility so that "radio will remain in the long term" among the preferences of Spanish citizens. Verónica Ollé, director of RTVE's presidential office, addressed the event, confirming that RNE, RNE 3 and RNE 5 will be part of this first deployment, together with four regional stations: Valencia, Seville, Murcia and Bilbao. Fernández Paniagua also provided new details of RTVE's plans with regard to DAB+: "We will start broadcasting in simulcast initially, and put into service four new stations that will provide coverage to a significant percentage of the population where, on an experimental basis, the digital radio services that RNE offers will be put into service with DAB+ technology".
