It's gone quiet around here lately so here is the latest on the DAB switchover project: there may be a Ministerial announcement in mid December. The CBA is yet to appear and is now well over 2 years late - that tells its own tale - and is now promised for a few weeks before the announcement. Believe it when you see it.
OfCom have finalised their coverage plan to replicate FM and the cost is being assessed by DCMS and the relevant parties. I suspect that it is not a palatable number! It is that cost that will be the key point of whether the switchover will happen soon and will almost certainly delay it, possibly until 2020.
