Gibraltar

The transmission provider Arqiva was awarded a contract to design and build two DAB+ multiplexes for Gibraltar in 2012. The two multiplexes each allow for four separate services and are located at a single site on the Upper Rock, minimising the environmental impact of the antenna support structure which replace two television transmission sites.

The primary transmitter site covers most of Gibraltar but due to high building density, additional filler sites will be added during phase two of the network rollout once detailed coverage surveys are conducted.

There are two regular regional multiplexes on air services four DAB+ programmes simulcast on AM/FM. The incumbent broadcaster GBC is transmitting the same content as on the FM network. Incumbent broadcaster BFBS has shown an interest to transmit on DAB+ but there is no timescale by when this will commence. BFBS would be providing the same content as on the FM network.
