Digital radio boots up

Article Abstract:

Digital radio broadcasting has arrived in Canada. The Canadian Radio- television and Telecommunications Commission has so far awarded licenses to 19 stations in Toronto, 12 in Vancouver and nine in Montreal. Digital radio offers CD-quality, crisp sound that just cannot be obtained with today's AM and FM receivers. Moreover, proponents of the technology say future users will be able to receive additional services such as personalized messages and other information.
