[cma-l] dab trial propsed extention

[Alex Gray, Two Lochs Radio]

I think a lot of the applicants would have been banking on that, if not an
'indefinite extension' - though it's a pretty poor show by Ofcom since there
might well have been a lot more people who would have just the costs and
risks differently if they had been offered a 3-year trial.

 

I certainly think it's incumbent on Ofcom to present a fairly full report at
9 months regardless of the extension.

Hello 

I've just received an email saying that Ofcom propose to extend the trial
for another 2 years 

I did apply to run this trail and never got it ,I think the reason was
because I never put enough stations on my proposed multiplex thinking that
it was a technical trial and not about  filling up the multiplex if I had
have known this I would of filled it 

Im still in the situation where we have the infrastructure and would love to
move our station forward to the modern day and get it on dab 

Now this trail is proposed to be extended does this mean that its going to
be another 2 years before the results are published and  any chance of
becoming a local dab community station are a long way off ,or has the
previous 9 months proved that there are no major issues and that they are
going to extend the trial and incorporate more stations on to it with the
view to licence them in the future , ???? or has it not gone so well that
more needs to be done ???

 

Many thanks
