The Wireless Group have added two Virgin Radio spin offs to their portfolio. Virgin Radio Anthems is an extension of the Anthems feature on the main station, and plays classic guitar led rock tracks. Virgin Radio Chilled plays acoustic tracks.
Both stations are now broadcasting on the SDL national DAB mutliplex, using the DAB+ format at 32kbps stereo. Not all DAB radios can receive DAB+ broadcasts, consult the packaging, instruction manual, or manufacturer of you are unsure. If you can already receive Fun Kids or Union Jack, your radio is DAB+ compatible.
Both new stations will also broadcast the Chris Evans Breakfast Show, when it launches on the 21st January. Virgin Radio UK is operated by the Wireless Group, which is owned by News UK.
