Digitization does not stop at the radio either.The terrestrial transmission of radio programs via ultra short wave (FM) will be phased out at national level in the foreseeable future (expected 2024).On Tuesday, September 27, 2022, the FM signal broadcast via the municipal multimedia network MMN will end.However, all stations remain available as digital radio stations.Digital radio (DVB-C radio) has been offered via MMN for many years and now includes over 150 stations.The 43 stations that are still broadcast analogously via VHF have also been part of the digital radio offering for many years and have even been broadcast twice so far.By not broadcasting VHF signals, the multimedia network (MMN) is reacting to the constantly growing data traffic and, in connection with the optimization and expansion of the MMN, is creating additional capacity so that it can continue to offer fast and powerful Internet connections in the future.Anyone who has connected an FM radio to the MMN cable socket using an antenna cable can recognize FM reception from the reception frequency displayed.Anyone who listens to the radio via the TV or via a radio set-top box, gets the radio signal from the air with an antenna (DAB+ or VHF) or receives radio via the Internet (WLAN) is not affected by this change.
