China Radio International begins 24-hour DRM service to London: China Radio International (CRI) has begun a continuous local DRM service to London on its own dedicated channel via the trial 26 MHz service operated by WRN, the London-based broadcast and transmission services company. This collaboration follows a recent visit by the President of CRI, Wang Gengnian, to WRN. CRI's DRM service to London is broadcasting a mix of English and Chinese programming that comes live from its studios in Beijing. WRN's 26MHz service provides CRI with complete DRM broadcast coverage of Greater London and it is being transmitted from the well known Croydon transmission tower, situated in South London and which is operated by Arqiva, WRN's DRM transmission partner for this project. Arqiva provides transmission services for most UK commercial radio stations. Croatia's RIZ-Transmitters has supplied the Yagi antenna and transmitter for the duration of the project. Xia Jixuan, Vice-President of CRI says, "We are very excited that CRI is now broadcasting its programming on the new medium of DRM in London. The goal of CRI is to inform the world about China and we are pleased to offer the people of London a wide range of our programming. Beijing and London will both host future Olympic Games and it will be very interesting for there to be a mutual dialogue conducted through CRI".
