The Swedish research and development company Wahlberg & Selin has received a large order for mobile satellite communication equipment from the UN. The equipment is for use by the Danish contingent of the UN-Ifor force in Bosnia for satellite communication with Denmark.

Direct transmission of digital TV via satellite from Danish trotting and racecourses is reported as being very successful. The organisation pioneering it, DanToto, reports a turnover increase of more than 25% since Racing Live, as the system is called, started a year ago. The satellite system, supplied by the Swedish firm Wahlberg & Selin AB, is now installed in several European countries.
