R.I.P. Gold Radio in London on 1548MW… 1973-2023… after almost 50 years on the air the time has come for the traditional AM radio for the Capital Gold transmitter (now Gold) and now has fallen into the history books of radio!
Yes, the last AM transmitter on 1458 kHz in Manchester will close down by this Monday, it has been confirmed by Global. More and more people have basically shifted away from medium wave radios to alternative ways of listening to Gold, which now include DAB, Global Player, online and smart speaker. Boom Radio does a similar format to Gold Radio, it is aimed primarily at the baby boomer generation and is also broadcast on DAB, Online, Boom Radio app and smart speaker.
