Here's the script by Ulrik Brinck of Kanal Plus for local ensemble in Denmark
The ensemble consists of 9 DAB+ programmes, some of them with DLS. The full set of CRC mmbTools is used with crc-dabplus for DAB+ encoding, crc-dabmux for multiplexing and crc-dabmod for OFDM modulation.
The hardware setup is made of:
- Intel Core i7-2600 4x3.40Ghz PC running Ubuntu Desktop 11.04, 32 bit version
- 2 AudioScience ASI5042 soundcards
- Ettus USRP1 with WBX daughterboard
- Power amplifier from Res-Ingenium, Italy
- Cavity filter from Telmec Broadcasting, Italy
- Antenna from vhfteknik.se, Sweden
