Galway Bay FM will launch on NTL Ireland's digital service next week.
"In effect, it is like being granted a quasi-regional licence in that we will now be broadcasting to an additional potential audience of 250,000 listeners in the Dublin, Waterford and Galway areas, on top of what we have already," Keith Finnegan, the station's CEO, told the Galway Advertiser. "The news will also be welcomed in some parts of Connemara where the station has experienced transmission difficulties in the past. Now all NTL digital customers will have to do is switch on their TV and go to Channel 914 to listen to us."
Ireland's Competition Authority is currently investigating the acquisition of NTL Ireland by UGC.
