BBC local radio services on DAB digital radio are transmitted by commercial broadcasting operators. This is because the BBC's digital multiplex is already used to full capacity for BBC national services.
Commercial licences are awarded by the regulator, Ofcom.
Some BBC local radio services are not yet available on DAB because they are in areas where a commercial mulitplex has not yet been launched or licensed.
