UCB is now on DAB digital radio

In 1986, UCB was founded with a vision for national Christian radio. Many people across the UK and Ireland have shared this vision and have faithfully supported UCB in prayer and with their finances. By God's grace, UCB's 21st year has seen a number of significant breakthroughs. In January 2007, UCB UK was first broadcast across the Greater London area on DAB digital radio and, in April, UCB's DAB digital radio broadcasts were extended to include Staffordshire and South Cheshire - UCB's 'home' territory. Through these broadcasts, UCB has been able to reach over 10 million people.

'For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.' Habakkuk 2 v 3.

UCB has now extended DAB digital radio broadcasting to the following regions; North East England, North West England, Yorkshire, the West Midlands and the Severn Estuary. This breakthrough sees UCB broadcasts being heard in every major city in England and Wales and takes UCB's 'reach' through DAB digital radio to almost 30 million people.

UCB UK on DAB digital radio in other areas of the UK
UCB believes that its vision for national Christian radio will be realised 'little by little' (Deut 7:33), or region by region. This has been the way of things so far and we believe this is how we will see our vision realised. We are looking to God to reveal His perfect will and timing for the extension of our DAB digital radio broadcasts to Northern Ireland, Scotland and to outstanding areas in the south and east of England. Please pray!

Why DAB digital radio?
More than 85% of the population is already able to receive DAB digital radio broadcasts and it provides clear listening, in digital quality sound. There's no hiss, crackle, or fading and less interference, just great radio all the time. With a DAB digital radio there are no frequencies. Just choose UCB UK or UCB Inspirational (selected areas only) from the text display screen. It's easy every time and you won't need to worry about losing your favourite Christian radio stations!

All DAB Digital Radios come with an LCD display which will allow you to choose UCB UK or UCB Inspirational (selected areas only) as your favourite channels and you will be able to see other information, or the programme to which you're listening. It is anticipated an Electronic Programme Guide service will be launched so you can see 'what's on' up to a week in advance, select programmes by genre and pre-select what you listen to.

Unlike some digital television services, you don't have to pay to receive DAB digital radio radio broadcasts. Once you've bought a receiver, you'll enjoy (check DAB digital radio coverage before you buy) all the benefits of listening to DAB digital radio completely free.

There are hundreds of different models of DAB digital radio receivers to choose from, with prices starting under 30 pounds. We expect prices will drop further while choice will continue to increase.
