Trial Glasgow Reshuffle

There have been several changes to the line up on the Trial Glasgow small scale DAB multiplex.

Matryoshka Radio, Mi-Soul, Sunrise Radio and YOUR Radio have switched to using DAB+ meaning that these stations are no longer available to all DAB radios. Gaydio is now broadcasting at 80 kbps in mono, whilst Nation Radio is now broadcasting at the slightly lower bit rate of 112 kbps (still in joint stereo). Most of the stations now have reduced audio quality.

The changes have allowed room for Celtic Music, 45 Radio, Visitor Radio, Pride Radio and United DJs to join the multiplex. All five are broadcasting in stereo DAB+, with Celtic Music using a bit rate of 24 kbps, and the others are using 32 kbps. All stations are only compatible with newer DAB+ radios, and due to the low bit rates being used, audio quality will be poor.
