Just like digital television, digital radio will change the way we listen to music and radio shows. In 2009 the UK government started to switch off the analogue TV signal. It is predicted that by 2015 the government will switch off the analogue radio signal too. This will include all national FM, AM and MW signals. If you haven't switched your car radio to enable it to receive the digital signal then you won't be able to listen to the radio on the move!

There are a lot of advantages to possessing a DAB radio. The quality of sound is noticeably greater than the standard radio transmission today. The DAB car radio will pick up the digital reception and since digital doesn't get interfered with by external white noise the sound produced will be crystal clear.

DAB Radios can also auto tune themselves so they will automatically pick up all the available stations in the area. The radio then presents the stations in a list for you to easily choose what you want to listen to.

The benefit of a DAB car radio over a regular one is that you can send extra information down a digital frequency. This means that the song title or artist is displayed on your stereo interface. As growing numbers of programmes will most undoubtedly be broadcasted entirely in digital, like BBC 1Xtra and TalkSport, there's a more expansive choice for you to pick from.

So how can you get the digital signal? There are a few different ways to go digital.

For example, you can simply buy and fit a new DAB car radio in place of your old analogue one. Of course you will require a new external aerial to pick up the DAB signal.

Alternatively, you could buy an external DAB box, which sends the new digital signal to your old analogue radio (FM/AM/MW), via an external aerial. The box is not dissimilar to the measurements of a sat-nav box and sits on the dashboard in the same way.

The grade of the aerial is critical to be able to receive a continual signal. A poor quality aerial won't operate sufficiently enough to get a digital signal everywhere. When you've got a top quality aerial then you are going to be equipped to get a digital signal from significantly far more areas throughout the country. Many folks fork out massive funds for the head unit and not a whole lot for the aerial. Don't forget the head unit is only as good as the aerial attached to it!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[

Satellite radio has certainly taken off. It is very popular for two or three main reasons such as quality, content and availability. In the perspective of satellite radio, quality refers to the quality of sound that is capable of being reproduced by the equipment because of the signal; content refers to the types of programmes being transmitted by the various radio channels or stations and availability refers to the footprint or coverage of the satellite, that is how much area of land receives the signal from the satellite.

All these comparisons are made with terrestrial radio broadcasts naturally. For example, we all know that standard AM or FM stations differ hugely in quality, the content can be heavily interspersed with advertising, jingles and mindless chatter and coverage is usually only on a very localized basis.

The two giants in the American satellite radio market are of course Sirius and XM and each one is attempting to out do the other in these three fields

Typically, satellite radio produces a quality of sound which is similar to CD quality. This is extremely high, especially if you use good quality equipment to replay the signal received. If you merely replay satellite radio through tinny, old, blown speakers, then you will hardly benefit from this boost in quality at all.

Quality, content and coverage have all played a role in increasing the popularity of satellite radio, but it is probably content which has played the greatest part.

You may be wondering why anyone would want to pay for subscription radio, when there is so much free radio around. It is a fair question, but in fact, similarities can be made with cable TV and broadcast television. Why do people pay for that? Is it the sound quality? Or the content? Or what? A lot of cable TV is drivel too. Sports coverage, perhaps.

At least the preponderance of satellite radio is free of commercials. That has to be worth a few dollars a month and it is in fact a large selling point. Many people cite the lack of commercials as one of their foremost reasons for moving to satellite radio.

It is likely that all big league sports games will move to subscription only over the next few years. This will inevitably be carried out with the use of satellite radio. American football, soccer, baseball, basketball will all either get their own nationwide channels or be bundled with other channels

People are fed up with the amount of advertising on AM and FM radio, but at the end of the day, the most important reason whether to get satellite radio or not for most people rests on content not even so much on the quality of the sound. If sport is removed from terrestrial radio and only available on satellite radio, then people, especially men, will move to satellite radio, which is exactly what happened with cable and satellite television.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[

XM Radio is one of the two largest American satellite radio broadcasters. They broadcast over 150 programmes of all types like sports, traffic, weather, music of all decades and comedy.

The principal area of their broadcasting activities though is music. After all, that is what most people like to listen to whilst they are driving or working at home or in the yard.

The music of XM Radio is wide-ranging, catering for the requirements of every music ever recorded. For example, of the sixty-eight music channels, there are channels that play music from only one decade: from the Forties to the Noughties!

Then, crossing those barriers of time, there are music channels that only play Rock and Roll or only play Bee Bop or only play the Blues. There are also channels that only play new records.

There are others that only transmit film soundtracks. In fact, XM music radio has most bases covered. There are even channels that play the music that is being played live in clubs such as the 'B.B. King Club' in New York City! The 'Blue Note Club' is there as well! In fact, the world of music is your oyster.

Then, on a different level, there are the leisure shows fronted by people like Snoop Dog and comedy shows with characters such as Opie and Anthony. There is family comedy as well and Playboy Radio for the older members of the family, although Playboy Radio pictures do not have to be rated.

Sports fans will get pleasure from the devoted sports channels. XM Radio's sports channels report on such sports as American football, basketball and baseball on a daily basis, although there are international sports featured for the more out-going too: worldwide, International sports such as soccer, the most popular participation sport in the world.

In fact, there are currently thirty-eight sports channels in XM's repetoire, although by the time you read this, there will probably be three or four times that amount. Many service providers are flocking to Xm's service in order to gain nationwide coverage in the United States.

News channels are there as well. Channels like the world-respected BBC World Service, CNBC, Fox, the controversial C-Span, CNN, the Discovery Channel, NASCAR Racing, E-Entertainment and many more.

If you require apparatus to receive this interesting new technology, you can easily find it on the Internet or in your local shopping centre. The cost of the equipment will not break the bank, but it is best if you price it up and then wait a week or two because new 'special offers' are coming out all the time.

The best technique to get XM Satellite Radio for today's best price is to wait and look which way the wind is blowing, in a short while you will get this illustrious satellite broadcaster for a bargain price.

Welcome to part two of 'How To Get Free Radio Advertising'. In part one we looked at how to contact the radio station manager and how to bring up the subject of getting free on-air radio advertising. If you have not yet read it, please look for 'How To Get Free Radio Advertising - part 1' on this site.

Doing it this way makes saying 'yes' or 'no' very easy for the manager, because his only decisions are whether he trusts you and whether he can fit you in or not. If the manager agrees to give your proposal his deliberation, put all your material in a package with a covering letter reiterating what you said on the phone, a photo of or a gratis copy of your product and your advertising copy.

Send it off or deliver it without delay. Include a stamped, self addressed envelope, if you want a written reply or your material returned.

If your proposal is rejected, send him a 'thank you, maybe next time' note and move on to the next name. If you are rejected often, perhaps you ought to sweeten your offer a little by raising their percentage of the cut or raising the price of the product. You will have to do some research there as well, if you do not get it correct first time.

Doing business like this is traditionally done using the phone and the postal service, because radio managers are usually pushed for time. However, it would be possible to do all this over the Internet, except sending samples, of course, if the manager is comfortable with the Internet.

It always surprises me how many people there are out there in business who do not use the Internet very often because they do not know much about it.

You could suggest using the Internet for sending your stuff over but do not be forceful about it, because the manager may be a little embarrassed to declare that he cannot use the Internet. It could also be faxed over, but faxes frequently come out looking tatty and that might spoil your chances. If in doubt, just post it.

If you get a green light to your application, be ready to act quickly, so always have your stuff bundled up and ready to go. Never give them time to forget who you are or 'go off the boil'.

You will have to have written your commercials first, but how long should they be? This is a difficult one, so ask the manager in your initial discussion, whether they have an advertising policy or preference for the length of slots.

It could be thirty seconds a slot or sixty seconds (a double slot). As soon as you know, you can write your adverts: two different adverts for each length of slot.

If you want to be completely pre-prepared, you could compose two fifteen second, two thirty second and two sixty second ads before you even phone anyone. And do not forget to read them back out loud a number of times to check them for length. Try getting a couple of friends to read them back to you as well.

The radio station will require you to sign a contract and you should have a simple contract drawn up too showing your payment policy, returns policy, dispatch policy, et cetera, et cetera.

In summation, your P.I. Advertising Package should contain the following: 1. a cover letter 2. a sample or product literature 3. two thirty second and two sixty second adverts 4. your P.I. advertising contract 5. a stamped, self-addressed envelope.

In conclusion, I want to suggest a few tips. When you are writing your commercials, try to include a catchphrase of some kind so that you can use it in your off-air advertising to remind people that your product has been advertised on-air. Spend a lot of time writing your commercial: radio station managers are busy, professional people and they cannot afford to waste valuable air time on failures.

If your product sells and makes money for them, you will be welcome back, otherwise you will be ignored. Put a few ads in the paper and fliers through the doors to pre-warm people to your up-and-coming radio advertising campaign.

Sirius Satellite Radio has over 150 channels available with the subscription which they provide. This includes 65 commercial-free music channels and 56 sports, news, talk, entertainment, local traffic and weather channels.

Music channels seem to be numberless, but unfortunately they aren't even tough there are many music stations that please everybody no matter what gender of songs she or he likes. So, there are country music channels that include New Country, Classic Country, Alternative Country and Bluegrass. For hip-hop lovers, Sirius satellite radio has 4 channels: Hip-Hop Nation, Shade 45, Wax and Back Spin instead of to mention the other streams where you're ears will likely be delighted with house, club mixes, electronic a, disco, R&amp;B, reggae rather than to forget rock(classic, alternative, mellow, metal, blues) music.

In 2005, Apple released a new iTunes update that changed the way America has entertained itself during work hours at a cubicle. This was the moment that pod-casting really took off because of the support of such a huge company like Apple. Soon enough, people started spreading the good word about how great free Internet radio is. The competition is enormous, with hundreds of new pod casts springing up on a weekly basis. This means that there are literally thousands of available shows and the cream naturally rises to the top.

The freedom that free Internet radio grants both the listener and the producer is a tremendous leap beyond the strictly governed world of terrestrial radio. The FCC has no sway over what is said or done on a pod-cast, so there is no way for anyone to censor the content. This ensures that the pod-casters who are generating the content are not chained to a set of outdated laws that hamper free speech. Also, the fact that only the best pod-casts get listened to acts as a filter to screen out the chaff that tries to be offensive for no other purpose then to shock. It takes quality programming to balance the profane and the listenable.

There is one show on the rise that has garnered much attention from the free Internet radio listeners out there. This show is called Foul Mouth Radio, and it certainly lives up to its name. The show is run by a duo called Captain C.B. and his co-host, Cannon. They are joined by a lascivious lady they call Melons. At times misogynistic and crass, but also pertinent and sincere, the show walks a tightrope between offending and endearing. Many have described the show as being well done because it gives the comforting feeling of sitting around with some great friends and everyone saying whatever comes to mind. The conversation is natural, never forced, and real. Nothing like this could exist outside the Internet.

The Captain C.B. and Cannon Show (featuring Melons) has been on the free Internet radio waves for over four years now. The show started as a way to spread the word about a Website called Foul Mouth Shirts. It started as a mere 20 minute show that was uploaded to Myspace and then expanded to a 3 hour show on its own site. Now it has moved up to being submitted to iTunes, and available through their Podcast services for download. The journey from humble beginnings has tempered the humility of these three none at all, and they continue to crow their self-worth to this day.

Of course, the company's stance on 1st Amendment rights works both ways. There are so many people in America who have listened to nothing but censored radio for so long, that Foul Mouth Shirts can be quite intimidating. What these people fail to take into account is that Foul Mouth Radio has never pandered itself to those of us who are intimidated by free speech and thought. The proprietors of the show only want those who have a willingness to thumb their nose at conventions of proper etiquette. Foul Mouth Radio is for the crude, and free Internet radio may never be the same.

The basic idea of how radios work is actually not that difficult to understand. Information is carried over the airwaves through invisible, electromagnetic waves that travel very rapidly. The audio that is recorded at any radio station is converted so that they can be broadcast through the station's transmitter. These waves then travel and hit the antenna in your home where they are reconverted back into the original audio. This principle applies for both analogue and digital radios, and has effectively remained the same throughout the previous century.

With regards to digital radios though, the signals required are a lot different to the analogue versions that we are used to. Rather than relying on changes in the amplitude or frequency of the radio wave used, these signals send out coded information that piggy backs on a carrier wave as it is sent out around the globe. This can contain data such as the audio signals of the song or talkback, as well as the name of the song or DJ and any other important information required.

When this signal hits your radio, the antenna then catches it and converts it into something that you can hear. This process takes a few seconds, meaning that digital radios actually lag behind their analogue counterparts. You can test this out by placing these two types of radio next to each other and tuning into the same radio station. The digital version will be a few seconds behind as it assembles the pieces of data into something that you can then listen to.

Despite this short lag, digital radios have a variety of benefits that make them preferable to the old, analogue versions. Firstly because of the digital nature of the signals, interference by tall buildings or tunnels is virtually done away with as the information contained within can travel onwards regardless of what stands between the transmitter and receiver. Issues such as static and crackly audio are basically a thing of the past thanks to this new digital advancement.

The quality of the audio output is also drastically improved when comparing digital radios to their older analogue versions. This is because more information can actually be contained within these coded messages, allowing your radio to then play a sound which is crisper and clearer than before. Your AM stations will play like FM ones and the FM stations will sound like you are hearing them from a CD. Thus, you can hear better quality sound no matter what you are listening to.
