3 UK radio stations broadcasting on analogue and DAB digital radio (excluding community radio): July 2008 Type of station AM FM Total analogue1 DAB Analogue or DAB stations 2 Local commercial UK-wide commercial * 4 BBC UK-wide networks BBC local and nations TOTAL In 2008 there were 99 services available on AM and 296 services on FM. In total there were 359 individual analogue services as 36 simulcast over both AM/FM wavebands. Of the 359 analogue stations and 171 DAB stations, there were 397 unique stations, as 38 stations were digital-only brands. *The existing Digital One national DAB radio multiplex did not offer coverage of Northern Ireland.

4 Analogue UK radio stations broadcasting: May 2014 Type of station AM FM AM/FM total Local commercial UK-wide commercial BBC UK-wide networks BBC local and nations* Community radio TOTAL The sector has three national analogue commercial radio stations: Classic FM, and on AM, talksport and Absolute Radio. These stations also broadcast nationally on DAB using the Digital One multiplex, which also carries 11 other services. Digital One covers most of the UK and during 2013 the company extended coverage to reach 74% of Northern Ireland residents. The process of licensing DAB radio differs from other licences, because of the way this type of digital radio is transmitted. Each multiplex is licensed by Ofcom and these multiplexes, one national and 50 local, can each carry about ten individual programme services. Source: Ofcom, May 2014 Note: the conditions of each licence will determine the amount of programming that may be shared between these licensed services. Here we have taken the view that a service providing at least four hours a day of separate programming (even if the same brand has other services) equals one service. * Includes simulcasts.

88 87 The role of radio today: summary Nine in ten of the population listen to the radio each week (RAJAR) It is largely a solitary activity with 61% of adults indicating they listen to the radio alone (Digital Day 2014) It is an habitual activity with the majority of radio listeners tuning in every day or most days (YouGov 2013) Over half (53%) time spent listening to the radio is done in the home (DD 2014) Almost a quarter (24%) of all radio listening is done whilst travelling (DD 2014) Radio is seen as informative (45%), offering something for everyone (43%), convenient (34%) and relaxing (32%) (YouGov 2013) Among those who say they listen to less radio than they did five years ago (26%), the main reasons cited for this are spending more time on the internet (34%), lack of choice (24%) and less available time (23%) (YouGov 2013) Among those who say they listen to more radio than they did five years ago (24%), the main reasons cited for this are it fits better with their routine (61%), new ways of listening (27%) and discovering a new station or programme (26%) (YouGov 2013) Deliberative research commissioned by Ofcom in 2013 also confirms many of the attributes: Radio s core qualities can be summarised as: an accessible, ubiquitous platform; a dependable companion; a deliverer of timely national and local information; and a source of a variety of entertaining and stimulating music and speech. For many listeners, the advent of digital platforms, web-enabled mobile devices, and new audio services has had a positive impact on their radio consumption, as it has extended access and increased station and genre choice. In addition to convenience, the unique characteristics of radio compared to other media are: music variety and specialism; listener interaction; immediacy; and local content.
