LONDON (Thomson Financial) - The UK Office of Communications (Ofcom) said it
has given MuxCo North Yorkshire Ltd a new local digital audio broadcasting (DAB)
radio multiplex licence for the county of North Yorkshire in England.
MuxCo North Yorkshire was the only applicant for the regional license.
Ofcom said the license will lead to a significant expansion in digital radio
services throughout the UK. It said it is one of several new local radio
multiplex licences planned to develop DAB coverage for services in regions of
England that do not have service.
The Local Radio Company PLC has a 60 pct stake in MuxCo North Yorkshire and
MuxCo Ltd holds the rest.
