In addition to FM, also liberalise MW stations. MW band will cover smaller towns and villages. I have visited AIR website, some MW stations have become DRM enabled. Also develop Radio on DVB-T2 technology it will be supplementary to FM band. There was a service called WorldSpace on L-Band beamed from satellite. Let Indians have satellite radio as well since the process has begun in an earnest.

20 stations multiplied by 800 geographic areas (roughly one city for each district, more than one for bigger districts) = 16000 stations. Each station 15 direct employee. 16000 X 15 = 240000 persons employed directly. Radio spectrum is the people's resource. FM band can not be used for mobile phones. If it is not used for FM radio, then our useful resource has gone down the drain. I am lover of Radio not only FM, MW as well. I like digital radio for variety it provides

Each dist HQ should have atleast 20+FM stations, Metros to have 50+ FM Stations. Channel Spacing of 400KHz in FM Band. Concessions for those who want to start DAB+ or DRM+ on FM Band. Licence Fees to be very affordable for every operator (commercial or community) so that smallest of dist HQ should be viable to have FM station. Compulsion of direct job creation in FM radio stations. Availability of good quality FM/DAB+/DRM+ Radio Receivers at affordable prices.

FM Radio system is useful to our COUNTRY. GOI should take more care to improve its bandwidth strengthen its signal to go more distance and reach every common citizen. In the FM mainly GOI programs and messages and News and RTG News about nature (RAINS, WEATHER FORECAST, EMERGENCY ANNOUNCEMENTS Etc.). FM STATION also improve and install where present not there and inform to people. Take help from all type of organizations to participate public program to reach GOI and People VOICE will reach
