Private broadcasters expanding broadcast area in Lower Saxony
On 13 December, a private DAB+ multiplex was switched on at a further transmitter site in Lower Saxony. This was the first time that the broadcasting area of a private multiplex in Lower Saxony was expanded. With the Rosengarten/Langenrehm site, the ‘Altes Land’ ensemble has been expanded to include a second site. The multiplex is broadcast on channel 7B with a power of 5 kW ERP. The additional transmitter site will improve reception of the multiplex, especially south of the Hamburg mountains. This means that anyone travelling on the A1 or A7 motorways, for example, will benefit. Reception is also still possible in Hamburg. Eleven private radio programmes are broadcast via the package on channel 7B. In addition to ffn and The Wolf, these include 89.0 RTL, bigFM and Oldie Antenne.
