Currently, six frequencies are used to test DRM signals, and the publicly available parameters are as follows:

Frequency
(kHz) Time
(UTC+8) Transmitter Power
(kW) Beam ID Notes
9655 0600-0900 URU 30 98 3FC
9655 1600-2000 URU 30 98 3FC
13825 0900-1700 BEI 30 175 0

17830 0900-1600 URU 30 98 3FC
There are no frequencies mentioned in the official frequency table, but they have been coordinated with HFCC and are not actually transmitted.

The official frequency list no longer contains information on the DRM broadcast frequencies emitted by Qiqihar, and it seems that the transmitter has been turned to testing or interference purposes.

According to feedback, the 21530kHz dynamic test frequency is still being transmitted in the B24 season.
