Deutschlandradio switches two transmitters permanently to DRM

Kai Ludwig reports: "Deutschlandradio has officially announced that its long wave transmitter at Zehlendorf on 177 kHz and the medium wave transmitter at Berlin-Britz on 855 kHz will be permanently switched to DRM mode on Monday 29 August.

990 kHz will be kept in AM mode and in future carry the special programmes that were previously carried on 177 and 855 kHz. These include sea area weather forecasts.

Apparently the special programmes on 177 kHz will continue on that frequency after the conversion to DRM.

It´s possible that 177 kHz will switch back to AM for these programmes, but I would not expect this."
