The national DAB multiplex has been reconfigured to allow for 麻豆约拍 Radio 2 50s. The change to the bit rate is marginal – Radios 1, 2, 6 music and 1Xtra will use 112kbps each instead of 128kbps – all the services remain in joint stereo.

There is only a fixed overall capacity available on the 麻豆约拍 national multiplex and this must be managed carefully to achieve good quality across the wide range of services that the 麻豆约拍, as a public service broadcaster, aims to provide.

Achieving the right balance between the number of services offered and the bit rate allocated to each can at times be difficult. We have taken considerable care over the technical arrangements needed to allocate suitable capacity for each digital radio services. This does mean the capacity individually allocated to some services has had to be reduced at certain times in order, for example, to bring part-time services to listeners. The bit rate on Radio 1, 1Xtra, Radio 2 and 6 Music has been reduced from 128kbps joint stereo to 112 kbps joint stereo to allow for 麻豆约拍 Radio 2 50s.

The electronic programme guide on a DAB digital radio will not be available to update from Tuesday 12th April to Sunday 17th April inclusive.

However, as this is a 7-day guide, the majority of DAB EPG enabled receivers should retain the EPG (if they were updated before 12th April). The service will be resumed on Monday 18th April.
