News about SIBC
SIBC is local radio station
committed to FM broadcasting, as efficient and providing good
coverage. It is a system that is affordable both to the local
broadcaster and to the listener.
The current SIBC
FM licence period lasts until midnight 18 October 2016, by which
time the future of local radio, and probably all radio in the
UK, should have been established.
For local radio,
FM broadcasting has already been confirmed well into the future.
The Secretary of State for Culture, Olympics, Media and Sport
wrote on 8 November 2011 that the government had always been
clear that a proportion of the FM band must be retained so that
local radio stations could continue to broadcast.
This is something
that SIBC has campaigned for since 1996, along with an
affordable migrationary digital system. The Band II digital
system has been developed but the UK is no nearer to adopting
it. |
