"With sales of digital radios nearly at 5 million, we felt the time had come give even more listeners a chance to access the national commercial stations on our network," said Digital One chief executive Quentin Howard. "We have already gone well beyond our original coverage commitment and will continue to champion DAB digital radio as the technology of choice for radio listeners across the country."
The new transmitters will be located at: Selkirk; Riddings Hill; Whitehaven; Workington; Bridlington; Scarborough; Whitby; Chesterfield; Newhaven and Eastbourne.
