Actually, I just heard an interesting rumor. One of the major broadcast
transmitter manufacturers (the one with sales offices in Mason OH) is
implementing their exciter for the new Ibiquity FM DAB system on an embedded
Linux platform. This includes some very high end encoding technologies (like
PAC/AAC). It'll be interesting indeed to see how this pans out.
