Smooth Radio UK’s weekly reach now stands at over 3.3 million adult listeners a week, up 231,000 on the same time last year. The audience also likes what they hear, with total hours listened to the station now standing at 25.75 million - almost two million (1.88m) more than a year ago – making it the UK’s second most listened to national commercial radio station. Simon Bates at Breakfast is celebrating his first year on Smooth Radio and has grown the breakfast audience by 69,000 to almost 1.4 million a week (YoY).

Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage
Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Aaron Joseph Johnson All rights reserved ABSTRACT Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson This dissertation is a study of jazz on American radio. The dissertation's meta-subjects are mediation, classification, and patronage in the presentation of music via distribution channels capable of reaching widespread audiences. The dissertation also addresses questions of race in the representation of jazz on radio. A central claim of the dissertation is that a given direction in jazz radio programming reflects the ideological, aesthetic, and political imperatives of a given broadcasting entity. I further argue that this ideological deployment of jazz can appear as conservative or progressive programming philosophies, and that these tendencies reflect discursive struggles over the identity of jazz. The first chapter, "Jazz on Noncommercial Radio," describes in some detail the current (circa 2013) taxonomy of American jazz radio. The remaining chapters are case studies of different aspects of jazz radio in the United States. Chapter 2, "Jazz is on the Left End of the Dial," presents considerable detail to the way the music is positioned on specific noncommercial stations. Chapter 3, "Duke Ellington and Radio," uses Ellington's multifaceted radio career (1925-1953) as radio bandleader, radio celebrity, and celebrity DJ to examine the medium's shifting relationship with jazz and black American creative ambition. -
Download Valuing Radio
Valuing Radio How commercial radio contributes to the UK A report by the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Commercial Radio The data within Valuing Radio is largely drawn from a 2018 survey of Radiocentre members. It is supplemented by additional research which is sourced individually. Contents 01 Introduction 03 Overview and recommendations 05 The public value of commercial radio • News and information • Economic value • Charity and community 21 Commercial radio people 27 Future of radio Introduction The APPG on Commercial Radio helps provide this important industry with a voice in parliament. With record audiences and more ways to listen than ever before, the impact of the industry should not be underestimated. While the challenges facing the sector have changed over the years, the steadfast commitment of stations to provide public value content every day remains. This new report, the first of its kind produced by the APPG, showcases the rich public value content that commercial radio provides to listeners for free. Valuing Radio explores the impact made by stations up and down the country, over and above the music and entertainment output that audiences expect. It looks particularly at radio’s role in providing news and information, the sector’s significant support for both charitable fundraising and education, in addition to work to improve diversity within the industry. Alongside this important public value content is a significant economic contribution to local economies across the UK. For the first time we have analysis on the impact of local advertising and the return on investment (ROI) that this generates for particular nations and regions of the UK. -
3 Radio and Audio Content 3 3.1 Recent Developments in Scotland
3 Radio and audio content 3 3.1 Recent developments in Scotland Real Radio Scotland has been rebranded as Heart In February 2014 Capital Scotland was sold to the Irish media holding company, Communicorp. It was sold as part of eight stations divested by Global Radio to satisfy the UK regulatory authorities following the acquisition, two years ago, of GMG Radio from Guardian Media Group. Under a brand licensing agreement, Communicorp has rebranded the 'Real' stations under the 'Heart' franchise and plans to relaunch the 'Smooth' stations following the reintroduction of local programming. Therefore, Real Radio Scotland was rebranded as Heart Scotland in May 2014. XFM Scotland was re-launched by its owners, Global Radio, in March 2014. 3.2 Radio station availability Five new community radio stations are available to listeners in Scotland Scotland’s community radio industry has continued to grow. There are now 23 community stations on air, out of the 31 licences that have been awarded in Scotland. New to air in 2013/14 were East Coast FM, Irvine Beat FM, Crystal Radio, and K107 FM. Irvine Beat FM has received funding from the Lottery Awards for All fund to build a training studio. Nevis Radio, which serves Fort William and the surrounding areas, was originally licensed as a commercial radio service, but having chosen to become a community radio service it was awarded this licence instead, on application. The remaining eight of the most recent round of licence awards are preparing to launch. A licensee has two years from the date of the licence award in which to launch a service. -
The Future of Public Service Broadcasting DMG Media Response to the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee's Call
Written evidence submitted by DMG Media The Future of Public Service Broadcasting DMG Media response to the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee’s call for evidence 1. This response is made on behalf of DMG Media, the publishers of the Daily Mail, Mail on Sunday, MailOnline, Metro, Metro.co.uk, the ‘i’ and inews. It is being submitted because BBC online news competes for audience with our digital titles and we are concerned that funding changes could give the BBC an unfair advantage. 2. DMG Media is not a broadcaster, and public service broadcasters have by longstanding convention not published newspapers. Therefore, whilst over the decades our news titles and the BBC may have had political and cultural differences, they have not been commercial rivals. 3. However the coming of the digital age has changed that. The philosophical foundation of the BBC was that in return for public funding and access to scarce broadcast spectrum, it would develop then-new technology (radio and television) and use it to provide, in addition to education and entertainment, an impartial news service. The written word was not part of its remit. 4. The unlimited possibilities of the internet have destroyed the rationale of that arrangement. Satellite, cable, and now streaming have brought new competitors into the entertainment market, global players with vastly greater resources than the BBC. 5. The BBC is dependent for funding on the licence fee, over which successive governments have resolutely retained control, doubtless believing that a national broadcaster which has to regularly come to the government of the day with a begging bowl is more likely to be compliant. -

The year before I had listened with excitement to the launch of our local commercial station, Liverpool's Radio City, and wanted to find out what other stations I might be able to pick up. In those days the Guide covered TV as well as radio, which could only manage to fill two pages – but then there were only 19 “ILR” stations. -

Overview Ofcom published a consultation on 4 February 2019 which proposed making changes to the existing technical rules that the UK’s DAB digital radio broadcasters are required to comply with as a condition of their licences. We proposed these changes with the aim of ensuring that our rules remained appropriate and proportionate. The consultation closed on 28 March 2019, and we received 28 responses to our proposals from industry stakeholders and members of the public. We have considered all of the points raised by respondents, and we have made certain revisions to our proposed changes in light of the comments that we received. This Statement concludes the consultation process, sets out our analysis of the points raised by respondents, and includes our final decision on the proposed changes to the technical codes. The new Technical Code documents1 will come into force today (11 June 2019). 1 https://www.ofcom.org.uk/tv-radio-and-on-demand/information-for-industry/guidance/DAB-Technical-Policy- Documents 1 Revisions to Digital Radio Technical Codes: Statement following consultation What we have decided – in brief The main changes that we have decided to make are in the following areas: ACI/blocking procedures We are proceeding with the changes that we proposed in relation to the management of ‘Adjacent Channel Interference’ (ACI) and 'blocking’, which are technical effects that can disrupt reception of existing DAB stations when new DAB transmitters are built. -
