[cma-l] bon voyage

[ROBERT TYLER]

Commercial radio is staying put for the long term, so don't make too many plans.
The important thing is to submit a robust reply to the consultation.

I would say don't panic as FM isn't going anywhere soon.
The government has said any form of migration or switch off would be market led and the listeners / consumers are not there yet.
Plus the last I heard about an actual stance was that they would favour a migration for the big stations and thus free up more space for CR etc

Dear All I was in the Pub at the weekend and was talking to a number of people who are quite in the know regarding             ‘’’Radio’’’                  the general consensus was (and quite worrying) that FM could be switched off completely by March 2019 !                How true / possible is this ?    can any of our experts please shed any light on it ?
