West Norfolk will get digital radio (DAB) in the autumn, almost a year later than intended, with two transmitters stationed in Lynn to “ensure strong coverage.” A new consortium comprised of the proprietors of existing DAB services in Norwich and Cambridge will run the digital radio multiplex for West Norfolk, which might result in up to 30 new stations. West Norfolk is the only portion of the county that has yet to receive DAB coverage, which was due to begin in November. KL1 and Radio West Norfolk are two of the stations that will be included.

James Keen, the director of North Norfolk Digital and one of the project’s overseers, said: “It will be exciting and long overdue, with lots of options.” “In the autumn, we will debut with two transmitters to provide solid coverage to King’s Lynn and the surrounding area.” “Radio West Norfolk, as well as KL1, will be on the multiplex.” Mast for a radio transmitter.
