RSM is on holiday so don't expect much this time of the year. They did hint at releasing a change before the end of the year but it didn't happen.
The increase to 1 watt sounds like it will happen but with some sort of height restriction, which will result in much less coverage for many operators.
It will be interesting to see how they do it. The LPFM system in the US has a height restriction of 30 metres above the surrounding area, and they may implement something similar here. That may make it illegal to put an antenna on a high building, which I know several operators do.
We are hoping for no restrictions, but we'll have to wait and see.

Last I heard (and I'm a bit out of the loop) there was talk of it being increased from 500mW to 1W.
Thanks!.
