have they managed to fit them in? I can't see any stations having been dropped.

Anyway, you clearly haven't noticed any degradation in quality for those services, so the BBC will be chuffed to bits (no pun e

when there'd be the occasional weekend pop-up station (BBC Jazz, Radio 1 >Retro etc) to make room they'd reduce the main stations from 128 to 112.
I could tell instantly from switching on the radio.

192K :(..

If you can see it and hear it then there is still room for more cuts...
as we used to say.
he BBC has once again degraded DAB. They obviously have too much
money when they keep introducing new stations. I think I'll write to
my MP EfOe

I doubt that it is costing them very much (if anything) and can't
imagine a MP being very interested (unless he has a grudge against the BBC).
The better solution is to move away from DAB to online delivery, which
is what they are encouraging anyway. I'm looking at a Ruark R1S Smart
Radio to replace my bedside radio. (It's a bit expensive but I have
the bonus of a John Lewis voucher to use). My car at the moment is
FM/AM only.

Why is it better?
If you use 'online delivery', you are limited to places where you have
an Internet connection and if you use wireless broadband, using your
mobile phone perhaps, you will not have the advantage of the seamless handover between transmitter sites that DAB has.
