Small-scale DAB multiplex launched in east Dorset
The small-scale DAB service for Verwood and the surrounding area in Dorset has gone live. The service is operated by Forest FM and launched shortly after the community radio station marked 20 years on air. Forest FM founder Steve Saville told RadioToday that the station applied to operate the multiplex to manage costs and protect its digital future. The transmitter is based in Verwood and covers the northern tip of the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole conurbation, where two small-scale DAB services have also launched in the last couple of years.
