Greece - Current situation - History

Greece has regular DAB+ services on air in and around the capital city of Athens, where a multiplex is operated by the state-owned broadcaster ERT.

There are seven DAB+ stations on air,  including the country’s six ERT radio program channels.

DAB+ frequencies have been allocated for a national deployment of DAB+ and the first licensing law for DAB+ stations was passed in January 2018. According to law, the Greek Telecoms Authority (EETT) will license DAB+ network provider(s) and The National Council for Radio and Television (NCRTV) will license DAB+ private radio stations.
