Hello….

So are we still on for a September launch or has the Digital Britain report put pain to this?

If yes…great when will the test transmissions start?

If no how much longer do we have to wait?

Cheers

Colin

Hi, I live in St Helens and I regularly listen to Juice FM. I get an excellent FM reception for this, including an RDS signal. I can also get Marcher/Heart on a decent signal. I have a DAB radio that picks up the Stoke and Manchester multiplexes, which I shouldn’t be able to receive according to postcode checkers on the internet. Is it likely that I will be able to recieve this multiplex here?

Also, do you know which frequency (11b etc.) the multiplex will broadcast on?

Thanks

Hello, yes Juice still plan to broadcast on the multiplex. No word from Heart/Buzz, so i’d encourage you to contact them direct to ask them to come onto the multiplex.

Heart have not confirmed whether they wish to go on the multiplex. We always suggest contacting stations that you wish to appear, so they can see the demand from their listeners.

Is the new Heart Cheshire/NE Wales going to broadcast on the multiplex to replace Marcher Sound, or will this not be added as you can get Heart London on the north west multiplex?

Hi, I am really interested in these developments with this new Multiplex to be launched, will Juice FM still be broadcasing on the multiplex and has there been any news of Buzz 97.1 being added to the line-up?

I am interested in Juice FM being introduced because a few years back i submitted a email to them asking if they would be accepted on the Bauer (EMAP) Liverpool Mux but they were turned away, now with the proposed new mux we can finally hear Juice FM clearer than ever.

Thank You.

P.s. Is there any news or update on the testing of the said multiplexes if awarded as i would like to be able to participate in any testing on this project as i am a avid listner to DAB through both portable and “in-car” DAB radios, if so please contact me.

Thanks again!
