NPR's "Tomorrow Radio" To Bring Multicasting to Digital Radio
Leading
the U.S. radio industry in technical innovation and programming, NPR
has ensured that multicasting will be a part of public radio's digital
future. Multicasting is a feature of HD Radio™ technology that creates
multiple broadcast channels from what is presently one analog radio
signal.
This summer, NPR will begin
offering five programmed music formats to multicasting stations:
classical, jazz, electronica, triple-A and folk. Other program
offerings NPR is developing for stations with new channels include a
news and information service and formats that would serve culturally
diverse audiences. [more on NPR’s tomorrow radio]
