In a first of its kind in the world, the DRM South Africa Group officially launched a DRM in FM demonstration and showcase. This was part of the global celebration of radio’s anniversary by DRM in its partnership with UNESCO in support of World Radio Day. The DRM in FM demonstration is a broadcast of a live digital radio signal from a high site in Northcliff, Johannesburg, operating at 70 watts transmitter output. The DRM in FM platform was also used to showcase education focused and informational digital radio content, demonstrating how DRM can support learning, accessibility, and public communication through data services such as Journaline. On 91.25 MHz multiple radio services are carried simultaneously on a single FM frequency, including Radio Pulpit, Hot 102.7, amongst others.
