Super Saver Delivery
Amazon.co.uk will deliver FREE to Italy when the total cost of eligible items is GBP25.00 or more and you select "Super Saver Delivery" when ordering. The item must be either sold by Amazon themselves, or "Fulfilled" by Amazon. Products on this page costing more than that are provided with two links, one to Amazon.it and another to Amazon.co.uk.

Attention: Many DAB receivers sold in the UK do not receive DAB+. Only order a DAB radio from the UK if you are sure it will receive DAB+.
Both DAB+ and DMB (both TV and radio) transmissions are taking place in Italy currently. Wohnort recommends that if you intend to use a receiver in this country it needs to be capable of receiving both systems.
Digital switchover is underway. In Italy, the process includes the abandonment of the television frequency allocations denominated by letters D, E, F, G, H, H1, H2 and the adoption instead of the European channel numbering scheme. A new DAB frequency plan is being implemented simultaneously which involves the migration of ClubDAB Italia, CR DAB and EuroDAB Italia from their existing assignments onto new assignments in Channel 13. While this migration is underway, the tables below may show both old and new assignments, and may be incomplete while new data is gathered.
The website of RTL 102.5 describes (Dec 2010) coverage of Italy's top twenty cities as follows:-
Bari - xx; Bologna - 13E; Brescia - 13E; Catania - 13E; Firenze - 13E; Genova - 13E
Messina - 13E; Milano - 13E; Modena - 13E; Napoli - 13E; Padova - 13E; Palermo - xx
Prato - 13E; Reggio Calabria - 13E; Roma - 13D; Taranto - xx; Torino - 13E; Trieste - xx
Venezia - 13E; Verona - xx
RTL's list is not 100% accurate, however. In March 2011, Brescia was observed to have very good coverage on Block 12A.

RAI Bolzano Dalla stazione Eiar alla radiotelevisione trilingue
Questo libro narra la storia della Rai di Bolzano. La stazione dell'Eiar a Bolzano nasce contro ogni previsione come quarta sede in Italia: deve trasmettere i discorsi dell'inaugurazione del monumento fascista della vittoria e contribuire al progetto di italianizzazione del Sudtirolo. Divenuta Rai nel dopoguerra, oggi è testimone e protagonista di una delle poche realtà consapevolmente plurilingui d'Europa. Nel libro si legge del fascino della radio, per cui anche ai più nazionalisti capita di volere l'autonomia; della passione per la musica; dell'occupazione tedesca; dei pochi giorni di Radio Bolzano libera; della gioia di partecipare, recitare, usare la voce per comunicare.
