Heart Digital

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Heart Digital was a digital radio network of stations that broadcast on DAB Digital Radio in the North East of England (on the MXR North East multiplex), the North West of England (MXR North West), Yorkshire (MXR Yorkshire), South Wales and the West of England (MXR Severn Estuary) and in Central Scotland (Switch Scotland). Heart Digital has now ceased, and where it could be previously heard listeners will be able to tune into London's Heart 106.2 instead. Global also used this same approached with their Galaxy branded stations, where Galaxy Yorkshire has replaced Galaxy Digital.
