The Paegas GSM network has once again fulfilled the exacting requirements of the Czech Telecommunications Office (ÄŚTÚ) concerning the quality of its network and services without any problems whatsoever. As the operator of the Paegas GSM network, RadioMobil a.s. regularly has to submit details to the ÄŚTÚ concerning compliance with the "Authorisation to establish and operate a GSM public telecommunications network". "We are planning further expansion of the network and services, using the most modern technology available and meeting the highest quality standards prevalent in Europe. We are very pleased that the Executive Director of ÄŚTÚ has confirmed once again that the qualitative parameters of our GSM network fulfil the most demanding criteria," remarked Klaus Tebbe, Managing Director of RadioMobil a.s. In the course of June and July, another significant increase was achieved in the number of base stations in the framework of the process known as Network Definition: in Prague alone, 30 stations were brought into operation, while in the whole of the Czech Republic a total of 99 were switched on. RadioMobil is now aiming, in particular, to increase the number of transmitters in towns, in order to improve still further the signal quality indoors. RadioMobil a.s is not only working on further improving the quality of coverage of the GSM Paegas network, but is also preparing more services and an expansion in the number of roaming partners. Paegas customers can now travel almost all over the world and make use of the advantages of mobile communications.
