Cover: Peter Pohle + Jürgen Kauer (KAVOP) Copyright © 2014, by WORLDWIDE DX CLUB V Printed in Germany by WORLDWIDE DX CLUB 3 DX MAGAZINE No. 3 U Vol. XLIX U March 2014 Hello again, Welcome to another issue of our DX MAGAZINE. Our NEWS EDITOR Walter Eibl has recently suggested that we should establish a separate mediumwave news section in our DX MAGAZINE. This would need a separate new editor for this section. If anyone among you is a mediumwave specialist and is willing to compile this new section for us, please do not hesitate to contact me. And now let's start with our usual news from outside the club - only one item this month: The EUROPEAN DX COUNCIL would like to invite you to the EDXC Conference 2014 to be held in the Southern France on 19-22 September 2014. The first part of the conference (19-21 September) will take place in a beautiful small village Saint-Dalmas de Tende situated approximately 80 km North-East from Nice. The latter part of the conference (21-22 September) will take place in the city of Nice. It is understandable that people are coming from and going to different places and different times. That is why we will try to be very flexible with the conference packages. The price for the basic package will be around 175 € (single) / 120 € (double) including: Accommodation (2 nights in Saint-Dalmas de Tende), Banquet dinner, 2 Coffee breaks and the Conference fee. If you have anything to ask, please, do not hesitate to contact Kari <[email protected]> or the main organizer Mr. Christian Ghibaudo <[email protected]>. More information and the preliminary programme can be found also on the EDXC blog at: <http://edxcnews.wordpress.com/category/edxc-conference-2014>. Once again, we would like to see you at EDXC conference 2014 in September. You are warmly welcome!

  • Public Opinion Survey of Residents of Ukraine
    Public Opinion Survey of Residents of Ukraine March 15-31, 2018 Methodology • The survey was conducted by Rating Group Ukraine on behalf of the International Republican Institute’s Center for Insights in Survey Research. • The survey was conducted throughout Ukraine (except for the occupied territories of Crimea and Donbas) from March 15-31, 2018, through face-to-face interviews at respondents’ homes. • The sample consisted of 2,400 permanent residents of Ukraine aged 18 and older and eligible to vote. It is representative of the general population by gender, age, region, and settlement size. The distribution of population by regions and settlements is based on statistical data of the Central Election Commission from the 2014 parliamentary elections, and the distribution of population by age and gender is based on data from the State Statistics Committee of Ukraine from January 1, 2017. • A multi-stage probability sampling method was used with the random route and next birthday methods for respondent selection. • Stage One: The territory of Ukraine was split into 25 administrative regions (24 regions of Ukraine and Kyiv). The survey was conducted throughout all regions of Ukraine, with the exception of the occupied territories of Crimea and Donbas. • Stage Two: The selection of settlements was based on towns and villages. Towns were grouped into subtypes according to their size: • Cities with population of more than 1 million • Cities with population of between 500,000-999,000 • Cities with population of between 100,000-499,000 • Cities with population of between 50,000-99,000 • Cities with population up to 50,000 • Villages Cities and villages were selected by PPS method (probability proportional to size).

    FOREWORD The purpose of the Digital Radio Guide is to help engineers and managers in the radio broadcast community understand options for digital radio systems available in 2019. The guide covers systems used for transmission in different media, but not for programme production. The in-depth technical descriptions of the systems are available from the proponent organisations and their websites listed in the appendices. The choice of the appropriate system is the responsibility of the broadcaster or national regulator who should take into account the various technical, commercial and legal factors relevant to the application.
