                    [Title] => House urged to fasttrack new separation standard for FM radio
                    [Summary] => The House of Representatives is urging the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) to fasttrack the adoption of a new separation standard for FM radio in the country and pave the way for the opening of the radio industry to more players. 


Rep. Joseph Santiago, vice chairman of the House committee on transportation and communications and a former NTC commissioner, said at a recent hearing that the migration from a standard of 800 kilohertz to 400 kHz will solve the problem of how to accommodate new players in the FM radio industry.
