Consultation: Small-scale DAB coverage change: Newcastle & Gateshead

This consultation seeks views on a request to extend the area to be served by the Newcastle & Gateshead small-scale radio multiplex service to include an adjoining area or locality. A radio multiplex service is the means by which DAB digital radio stations are broadcast. Ofcom is required to consult before deciding whether to agree to such a request.

What we are proposing – in brief

We are minded to approve an application from Tyneside Community Digital C.I.C. to vary the small-scale radio multiplex licence for Newcastle & Gateshead so as to change the area in which the service is required to be available.
