TWiRT 247 - Norwegians, Turn Off Your Transmitters

Norway’s National Communications Authority has calculated, and measured the coverage of DAB+ networks across Norway, and found that they now surpass the existing FM coverage there. Given that the shut-down conditions are met, Norway is ready to shut down the FM band. And, Chris Tobin and I discuss online Public Files and the dangers of ice on towers.
