| MediaCorp Radio’s Digital Radio Event at Suntec City |
|
|
Organized by MediaCorp Radio and in conjunction with MediaCorp TV’s HD5 Lift Off event, the Digital Radio event saw the adoption of a brand new name for MediaCorp Radio’s digital service.
MediaCorp Radio first launched its digital service in Singapore on 19th November 1999. Originally called Digital Radio, it is now known as MediaCorp Radio’s Digital Radio. Based on the European’s Eureka-147 Digital Audio Broadcast (DAB) standard, it is also Asia’s first digital radio service. Digital Radio currently offers a total of 14 radio stations — six of which can only be heard exclusively on Digital Radio and eight are MediaCorp Radio’s more popular FM stations on simulcast that include Class, Y.E.S., Symphony, Gold, Love, Lush, 987FM and 938LIVE.
Visitors to the Digital Radio event were also treated to a display of many state-of-the-art digital receivers ranging from in-car, portable, USB to high-end in-home models. Click here for more info.
