Dunno, Jim. The transmission side of the BBC was out sourced many years
ago. So may have changed things to commercial PCM equipment for

That's possible, yes. I've asked in the past but never been able to find
out for sure. Although more than one BBC person has told me they think it
still is NICAM for FM distribution.


The equipment would be getting on a bit by now. ;-) The department that
designed and had such things made was axed many years ago. But it could be
possible.
