In March of 2013 the Arab States Broadcasting Union held a DAB+ digital radio workshop in Tunis supported by Italian Public Broadcaster RAI. Following this workshop and with the help of RAI, ONT set up a DAB+ trial using a 500W transmitter from an Italian manufacturer. The ONT DAB trial is still in operation but is no longer supported by RAI.

The parameters of the current DAB+ trial are as follows:

  • DAB allotments have been assigned in Channels 10 and 12
  • 68dbmikroV/m field strength chosen for portable indoor reception

The National Office of Broadcasting (ONT), a pioneer and leading-edge operator, invested in a pilot DAB trial from 2008 - 2010. The trial covered the areas of Greater Tunis, the good Cap and areas close to the governorate of Bizerte.
