This is no mean task and I am delighted on the progress that we are making. We’ve already published our initial plans and timetable as well as a short video showing exactly what we wish and need to deliver. This is available to view on the HBA Website. As you can appreciate there is a lot of work still to do to allow as smooth an implementation of change as possible. HBA, like many other associations and organisations, are streamlining with an eye on limited resources yet delivering the services expected. I believe that HBA will be, once again, in an excellent position to represent hospital broadcasting. Our Regional Representatives have delivered several meetings this year and I am pleased that the association’s members acknowledge the need and desire to restructure and aim to deliver what our aim and objectives are. The Trustees are engaged with the challenges ahead and are working as a collective team to ensure that we rekindle relationships with key stakeholders, supporters and members alike. This takes time but I’m delighted to report that great progress is being made. For example, we received the opportunity for some of our Award winners to attend the Radio Academy’s Radio Festival in September. This demonstrates that hospital broadcasting continues to be recognised across the radio industry. More details on this event is included from page 17 onwards. Our annual HBA Conference and National Hospital Radio Awards will be held in London Watford in March 2016 and great progress is being made on delivering an enjoyable weekend for all. More details are contained with this edition, but our website and newsletter will continually be updated as we progress and finalise our plans. If you have any comment or suggestion you would like to share with the Trustees, then please do not hesitate to email [email protected]. ,&OWIWHJHYMW FHYMW9VPYHRBHP At 19:00 on Friday 25th September, Watford Hospital Radio began to undertake a whopping 60 hour broadcast, to celebrate their 60th birthday celebrations.

    Tindle MuxCo Channel Islands Limited An application to Ofcom for the Channel Islands local DAB digital radio multiplex Part A – Public Section July 2019 Executive summary Please provide a summary of your application, of no more than four pages in length. Tindle MuxCo Channel Islands 1. Tindle MuxCo Channel Islands Ltd (‘TMCI’) was created to establish local DAB digital radio in the Channel Islands, with shareholders who have significant analogue and digital radio experience through broadcasting and multiplex ownership – Tindle CI Broadcasting Ltd and Folder Media Ltd. 2. Tindle CI Broadcasting operates the popular and successful local heritage commercial services in the Channel Islands – Channel 103 and Island FM – which consistently report the highest percentage reach figures in the British Isles, whilst Folder Media has considerable experience as a multiplex operator and content producer, having established the Now Digital and MuxCo networks, and currently managing the MuxCo network as well as multiplexes owned by Wireless Group and Bauer Media. 3. Tindle CI Broadcasting and Folder Media have been developing plans to bring DAB to the Channel Islands since early 2018, initially undertaking research of radio listening habits and digital take-up across the islands, discussing opportunities with Ofcom, and then formally announcing its intention to apply in November 2018. 4. Our ethos is that digital radio should be available in a cost and operationally efficient manner to enable as many organisations as possible to broadcast. TMCI will offer both DAB and DAB+. We believe this is the best way to encourage more stations to join the platform and provide a compelling proposition for digital radio listeners.

  • Communications Market Report
    Communications Market Report Research Document Publication date: 19 August 2010 Introduction This is Ofcom’s seventh annual Communications Market report. Its objective is to act as a reference source covering the UK communications sectors, aimed at industry, policy makers, analysts and consumers. The report also provides context for the work that Ofcom conducts in furthering the interests of consumers and citizens in the markets we regulate. The report contains data and analysis on broadcast television and radio, broadband and fixed/mobile telephony. It also offers insights into how people are using the internet and converged devices to access audio-visual and audio content. Take-up of several digital devices and services passed new thresholds in 2009/10. Over seven in ten people (71%) now have access to a broadband connection at home; over nine in ten (92%) have digital television installed on their main set in the home. And more than a quarter (26%) of mobile users now have a smartphone, offering consumers access to much more than just voice telephony. Growing levels of device take-up are reflected in the new ways in which people relate to communications services and media content. Broadcast television viewing and radio listening have remained comparatively stable year on year. But people are also using the internet to access audio and audio-visual content. Nearly four in ten people claim to watch television services online, while 14% listen to radio over the web. Moreover, a fifth (23%) of mobile handset owners now use it to access data-related services such as the internet. This is just a snapshot of the findings emerging from this year’s report.

In total there were 120 million requests across all platforms (both online platforms and devices and BBC iPlayer on Virgin Media TV combined). • The week of 4­10 January set a new record for total requests (23.8m) and radio requests (8m), boosted by catch­up viewing following the Christmas holiday, such as Doctor Who and Gavin and Stacey , and audio cricket coverage. On 11th January the new Chris Evans Breakfast show also attracted high request numbers. • Requests from PC/Macs continued to dominate in January for both TV and radio content, however requests for TV programmes via BBC iPlayer on Nintendo Wii increased +1 point to 4% of the total number, and PlayStation®3 requests again delivered a further 8%. Consistent with previous months: • The profile of BBC iPlayer users is fairly stable at around 60% male / 40% female, and remains strongly under­55 in terms of age, which is younger than the typical TV viewer or radio listener’s profile. • On­demand makes up the great majority of TV programme requests (in January only 8% of requests were for live simulcast streams), however two­thirds of requests for radio streams are for live programmes, as opposed to on­demand catch­up listening.
