The Big Switch to DAB+ 

​

Like many other broadcasters we're changing the coding of our DAB signals to DAB+ and we will use this page to notify these changes and any other coverage changes as they take place.

​

DAB+ encoding generally allows a wider range of services to be broadcast in an area and/or an improved sound quality for listeners. However, a small number of sets are not capable of decoding newer DAB+ signals.  

​

If a set cannot decode the signal the station may not appear on the list of available stations or it may appear on the list but be silent.

​

Unfortunately, if you are no longer able to receive a station because your DAB radio cannot decode DAB+, you will need to find an alternative way to tune in (such as Radio Player or Alexa) - or upgrade your radio to one which is capable of receiving DAB+ stations.

​

Forthcoming changes:

​

If you listen to More Radio on DAB Digital Radio - get set for the Big Switch to DAB+ on Thursday 1st October.

 

We’re upgrading to DAB+ to bring you higher quality stereo audio – and you may need to rescan your radio and reset your pre-set after the change.

 

There’s no change to More Radio on FM or online, if you already listen via those platforms.​
