The Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) has announced the release of the first guide to the DRM standard in Russian.  This is the first full comprehensive DRM Users’ Guide produced by the Consortium in a language other than English.

The guide details the advantages of implementing DRM as a fully open, global, energy and spectrum efficient digital radio standard.

Albert Waal, DRM Executive Board Member and editor of the document, says: “The Russian Users’ Guide is much more than just a translation of the English version. The guide comes with last minute updates and focuses on the aspects of DRM which have the greatest relevance for the Russian broadcasters and industry.”

DRM Chairperson Ruxandra Obreja (pictured) welcomed the new document to be made freely available on the DRM website: “We are delighted to have for the first time a Russian version of the DRM Users’ Guide. We hope to be able to produce versions in other languages, if required. Meanwhile intensive work is going on in order to offer the digital radio world a new more complete English version to include information on DRM+ and the recently adopted ITU recommendations.”
