Juice 107.2 in Brighton has now ceased broadcasting, as part of launch preparations for Capital FM Brighton (also known as 107.2 Capital FM). Rather than simply rebrand the service, as Global have done previously with other acquisitions, Global have decided to launch a complete new service, only utilising the existing frequency and transmitter.
Capital Brighton will share studios with the local Heart service, rather than use the studios that were acquired with Juice 107.2.
Changes have taken place on the local Sussex DAB multiplex. Capital UK (a stereo simulcast of mono Capital UK service on the D1 National ensemble) has been removed. As Juice was already on DAB, the existing service has been relabelled, and now broadcasts in stereo with a bit rate of 128 kbps.
Test transmissions for Capital FM Brighton are being broadcast on 107.2 FM, DAB, and on-line.
