question, but if all this goes well and ‘’’within’’

you have to switch off FM and go just DAB ……………….just
so folk don’t get selective memory loss I would like to point out that
the DAB discussion started about 5 – 6 years ago with the original
suggestion of ‘shifting’ all the Big Stations over, thus leaving FM
for Community Radio, which of course would mean a heck of a lot of Community
Radio.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

time. This is a similar thing that they have trail on in <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Switzerland</st1:place></st1:country-region>. It
does lack a GUI, so some Linux CLI experience is required. There are more
things that could be improved on as well, but it is a fully working system at
present.<br>
<br>
This software can work on standard PCs that are dual core upwards.<br>
I am looking into using the software on a VM system (like Hyper-v or
Xen).<br>
<br>
It does show that a lot of engineering in radio including RF is becoming more
and more computer orientated.<br>
