Digital Radio For Lincolnshire Now Very Close
If you have a digital radio then our local stations will very soon be available for your listening pleasure on the DAB platform.
I picked up two different multiplexes yesterday which were titled Lincs FM and BBC Radio Lincolnshire. The signal was booming out here in Skegness.
The broadcasting on these channels is due to begin next month October 2015.
I would encourage any radio stations based in the County to contact MUXCO if they are interested in broadcasting in the digital realm. I have no idea what this entails but you can get information and contact details here:

Digital Radio for Lincolnshire has been a long time coming but it really looks as though we shall be able to benefit from it very shortly. Hooray says I.

Amazing What The National Media Picks Up On!
I had a chat with William Wright about this story yesterday afternoon on his show on BBC Radio Lincolnshire. Was really not expecting this story to go national though!
http://www.itv.com/news/2015-08-25/search-for-dog-owner-after-girl-4-is-attacked-on-beach/
What is it that makes something as mundane as this, in perspective terms of course, it was obviously not mundane for the family involved or the dog owner, go national?
I will never fathom out the national media!

DAB Radio For Lincolnshire?
Just been investigating this issue. Having bought a new car with DAB capability I was disappointed that in most of Lincolnshire you can only pick up the National DAB stations such as LCB, KISS, Classic FM etc. and then the BBC Radio 1,2,3,4 ,5 etc. Up towards the north of the county Humberside DAB appears to be accessible!
Looking at the website of Muxco which is the organisation that owns the licences it states that it is going to be starting to broadcast on DAB in September in Lincolnshire, initially with Lincs FM. BBC Radio Lincolnshire, and Compass FM involved. They state that they are looking for other radio stations to get involved and I have lobbed the information towards two local community radio stations, Lindsey Online and County Linx Radio to alert them to the opportunity. It would be great to see them get involved although I have no idea what the financial requirement is which is normally a big hurdle with any opportunity such as this.
More information here, but not a lot: http://www.muxco.com/multiplexes/lincolnshire/
If you are into radio, as I am, perhaps you could keep this issue in mind and ensure you jump on any bandwagon going that will allow DAB in Lincolnshire to happen. As Henry at Lindsey Online says "It has been a long time coming!"
