NIGERIA Africast 2008 The 7th Africast convention will be taking place
in Abuja, Nigeria from October 21 to 23. First introduced in 1996 by the
National Broadcasting Commission of Nigeria, Africast is a biennial
conference platform centered around broadcast issues as they relate to
Africa. This year's conference is devoted to the challenges and
implications of digitization for Africa's broadcasters.
In cooperation with Thomson, Radio Benue, a Nigerian state broadcasting
organization, is providing live DRM transmissions for this event using
their Thomson 50 kW M2W transmitter installed at the Makurdi station.
Thomson has provided Radio Benue with the DRM modulator/exciter Alto-
Stratus and will make DRM consumer receivers available during the Africast
convention. Our specialists will be happy to welcome visitors and discuss
the various exciting new coverage possibilities provided by DRM and the
Thomson end-to-end DRM transmission chain.
