In brief:<\/strong> Antenne Bayern<\/strong> has, since Whitsun 2026, been receivable for the first time via DAB+ across large parts of Northern Italy<\/strong> \u2014 from Bolzano to Venice, from Lake Garda to the Adriatic coast<\/strong>. The new digital coverage area takes in the main routes heading south: the Brenner motorway A22<\/strong> (Bolzano\u2013Trento\u2013Verona), the A4<\/strong> towards Venice and the A13<\/strong> towards the Adriatic. The familiar FM frequencies around Lake Garda stay active<\/strong>. For German-speaking travellers this means a continuous German-language radio companion from the Brenner border to the destination.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

“Continuous German-language radio from the Brenner to Venice \u2014 no retuning, no frequency changes.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Anyone who regularly drives towards Lake Garda, Venice or the Adriatic beaches knows the problem: somewhere past Verona the German FM signal breaks up, the seek function finds Italian pop stations, and the familiar programme is gone. With the DAB+ coverage of Antenne Bayern in Northern Italy<\/strong> switched on for the Whitsun 2026 start, that changes noticeably: for the first time the Bavarian commercial station can be received digitally almost continuously on the classic arrival routes \u2014 from the South Tyrolean Brenner border deep into the Venetian lagoon region and out to the Adriatic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
