[cma-l] Ofcom review of Analogue Radio Technical Policy and Processes.

[Bill Best]

I've been informed that the research published in December 2015 below on
the implications for DTT coverage planning and interference
modelling partially addresses some of the issues from the UHF/VHF
consultation.

http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/market-data-research/other/technology-research/2015-reports/UKPMReview/

Ofcom is still planning to publish a high-level description of the UK
Planning Model to close out the work.

Best regards

Bill
