Main tables last updated on 19/8/2008 Maps show the approximate transmitter coverage, not the license area. Details of future multiplexes are provisional. Transmitters with no power listed are planned, but not on air. For bit rates and PI codes go to DAB Ensembles. For station websites, try the other directories. Digital radio links
