mono to stereo
In the early days of stereo it was common to get stereo records
realeased with a "mono recording reprocessed to give a stereo effect".
Now that the introduction of DAB has caused many stations to revert to
broadcasting in mono there must be a new market for a "mono to stereo
effect" processor.
Is there such a thing? Do any DAB receivers include one?

Not as far as I know - just buy 2 DAB radios.
At the prices they are now that would be cheaper than any gismo producing
the 'dual mono' which is all you could get from a mono signal!
Or am I missing something....???

From what I've heard of DAB stereo it seemed that it was some sort of
re-constituted mono that was passing for stereo....

Use two different speakers for left and right, preferably with
different order crossovers.
Or, what I used in the 1970s is a simple phase-shift circuit feeding
one channel. Constant gain at all frequencies and phase shift varying
from 0 at low frequencies to 180 degrees at high frequencies.
It uses 3 resistors, a capacitor and a 741 (for the classic sound!)

As the general quality of the broadcasts is going down all the time, just
don't bother.
What's not in it, you can't get out.

That's a multiplex decoder designed to update a mono FM tuner to receive
stereo broadcasts. Although I doubt there are many mono tuners around
these days.
It will have no effect on a mono broadcast.

I am not sure,
See, there you go again - that opening line says immediately to me - 'don't
bother with this one, it's conjecture at best, go and get the windows done
while you have the chance'...
Perhaps it's me? - Or the fact that, despite it being a Sunday, I still have
more pressing things to do in this good weather...??
