Broadcast Electronics said the use of a new HD Radio system in Surabaya, Indonesia, marks the return of private AM radio to that nation.
The medium-wave system on 1062 kHz was installed on Radio Sangkakala in April, “some 15 years after private AM stations in Indonesia migrated to FM, virtually abandoning the medium-wave band,” BE stated.
The broadcaster is a religious group affiliated with Bethany Assembly of God. BE dealer Catur Mitra Adhikara installed a BE AM 10A transmitter with AS 10 HD signal generator.
BE called it the first known AM HD Radio system in Asia.
