From Monday 21st September , Premier Christian Radio will be broadcasting across Britain on DAB digital radio.
It’s a significant expansion for Premier which has come a long way since its launch as a medium wave local station in 1994 when it was only available in parts of London. Via the national commercial operator, Digital One, Premier will be available to more than 90% of the British population from Newcastle to Exeter and Southampton to Glasgow.
Premier's Chief Executive, Peter Kerridge is excited about the switch to national DAB digital radio. “ For the past few years it’s been our ambition to bring Christian radio to listeners across Britain. It’s a campaign that’s seen lobbying of Parliament, letter-writing campaigns to the regulator and people at prayer across the country. This is the biggest step for our radio station since its launch. We’re grateful to church leaders from all of the major Christian denominations who’ve supported this initiative, and to the thousands of individual listeners who are backing us financially to pay for national transmission.”
As well as Torch's own programme, Insight with Marilyn Baker broadcast on Sundays at 4PM you can listen to Inspirational Breakfast, the daily magazine show Woman to Woman, Premier Worship, Premier Drive and Worship and Gospel Tonight. Premier also broadcasts talks, discussion programmes and specialist music programmes (ranging from rock to R&B).
If Premier doesn't come up in your choice of stations, please tune to "D1 Test1" or do a Rescan/Autotune of your radio.
