All change after Jazz FM's London departure

Following the launch of Smooth FM 102.2 in London, the FM station's output has appeared on regional DAB digital radio multiplexes in Central Scotland, the North East of England, Yorkshire, West Midlands and South Wales and The West. The station can also be heard on London's second DAB multiplex.

Further changes and the removal of Jazz FM from multiplexes have meant that Real Radio is now broadcast across regional West Midlands and North-East of England on digital radio.

Jazz FM has been rebranded jazzfm.com to reflect its availability on the internet as well as DAB digital radio in some areas. The updates can be viewed below:
