🇬🇧 English

This decision updates the radio frequency assignment for the DAB multiplex operated by SAS Compagnie des multiplex DAB in the extended Valence area. It adds a specific transmission site near Bourg-Saint-Andéol on channel 9A, with set technical limits for antenna height, power, and directional radiation. In practice, this is a technical network change for the broadcaster and any radio services carried on the multiplex. The assignment is subject to the outcome of international coordination procedures, so the operator may need to wait for clearance before full use.
