Abstract
This document records an invited Keynote Address made on 23 June 2003 as the opening presentation of the 9th International Conference on HF Systems and Techniques, held at Bath University and organised by the IEE.

The presentation was a deliberately light-hearted look at the development and introduction of the DRM (Digital Radio Mondiale) system for digital broadcasting in the bands below 30 MHz. It was timely, as the Official Launch of DRM had taken place the previous week, and also illustrated some very recent results concerning frequency-diversity reception of DRM.
