There's a "Hits Radio UK" on the same multiplex as Gem, I'm assuming that will be going. Hopefully they can use the data freed to up the bitrates elsewhere- GHR on there is still mono for god's sake.

Literally just a matter of weeks since Gem went DAB only (with GHR taking over on FM), like you say it seems pointless.
