Just 3 months after securing a SSDAB radio transmitter licence from @Ofcom experts from @viamux and @AndyBoltonProd installed the antenna on Blackpool Tower.
A few more hurdles and testing and we’ll have a host of new local radio stations on air in days.
Amazing vid @GedMills

We hope all interested parties will take part in this study about local DAB

Gulp!

@radioriley Great! Hope it goes well.
Bear us in mind when you expand further, as Blackpool has a loyal radio audience and also attracts 21.5m visitors a year and growing!

[Funcoastdigital @funcoastdigital]

A beautiful day to broadcast

[Funcoastdigital @funcoastdigital]

Great to catch up with former Radio Wave presenter Jon Culshaw on his UK tour while in Blackpool.
If you get the chance to see him, go!

The team at Fun Coast Digital are saddened by the passing of our good friend Linda Nolan.
Linda was fiercely proud of Blackpool and did everything she could to promote the resort. Our thoughts are with her family at this sad time.

If a certain TV show has reminded you how fab-u-las Blackpool is, don’t forget you could broadcast your radio station on DAB from the top of the iconic Blackpool Tower. And remember, places are Strictly limited!

[Funcoastdigital @funcoastdigital]

We’ve had the screwdrivers out today at the top of (a breezy) Blackpool Tower and made some positive changes to the small-scale DAB radio antenna

[Funcoastdigital @funcoastdigital]

While we do want politicians to support dab, I’m not sure this is what we were expecting.

As aerial sites go, ours is pretty impressive - even in the rain!

If you live close by, get down to see the illuminations before they end on New Year’s Day, oh and tune in to one of the 11 small-scale DAB radio stations we have in Blackpool.

There’s lots of people here today - is something going on?

A few days away in the sun and even the beer reminds me of radio

[Funcoastdigital @funcoastdigital]

A massive congratulations to @AmandaHolden seen here on the radio deck of Blackpool Tower next to our DAB transmitter just about to climb to the flagpole, the first untrained person to achieve that in 130 years!

[Heart @thisisheart]

Watch our hero @AmandaHolden take on the challenge of a lifetime by climbing @TheBplTower raising money for @makenoise... epic! 👏
