Existing station on DRM mode increased their output for B04 season.

Like DTK Wertachtal carrying DW programs, changed from 150 to 200 kW.

Sinesand Trincomalee from 80 to 90 kW. Maybe this power is in use already.

Thales magazine Autumn 2004 mentions under

DRM Upgrads

Thales has been recently contracted to upgrade various existing stations for
DRM.
Radio Vaticana, the Voice of the Vatican State, has decided to upgrade its
600 kW mediumwave tube transmitter to DRM. Delivered by Thales in 1988, this
transmitter is still on air daily and in perfect operating condition.

Earlier this year, RV contracted Thales to upgrade its 50 kW solid state
mediumwave transmitter to fully automatic DRM operation. [1611 kHz tx?, wb.]

Another leading DRM pioneer broadcaster, Deutsche Welle, has recently
contracted Thales to upgrade yet another two of its transmitters to DRM. The
scope of delivery includes:

- an upgrade of the 2nd 250 kW SW tx at the DW relay station
Sines in Portugal (Thales TSW 2300),

- an upgrade of the first 400 kW mediumwave tx of the
Sri Lanka station at Trincomalee (Thales S7HP),

- 2 Cirrus encoders/multiplexers,
- 2 Stratus modulators/RF exiters,
- 2 Zephyr baseband analyzers, and

integration to the existing Station Master System for automatic DRM
operation.
