Ofcom has tweaked its DAB licence advertisement timetable in an effort to encourage earlier availability of digital radio services in parts of Wales.
"The planned licence for Pembrokeshire & Carmarthenshire has now been replaced with a licence for Mid and West Wales, which is designed to cover the counties of Ceredigion and Powys in addition to Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire," the regulator said this morning. "This change has been made in order to facilitate as early as possible the provision of local commercial and BBC national DAB services Radio Wales and Radio Cymru in as much of Wales as is practicable."
