Lincs FM will move to DAB only with Greatest Hits replacing it on 102.2 FM from Belmont and the two FM relays in Scunthorpe and Grantham.
The station will also replace Kiss in Cambridgeshire, Suffolk and NE Essex. Kiss will continue on FM in Norfolk from the Tacolneston tx.
Do we know why Kiss is remaining in Norfolk? This is positive for me as it has been a very long time since I've enjoyed the music on Kiss - probably since it ceased being Vibe FM.
GHR already have small scale FM stations in Norwich, Great Yarmouth and North Norfolk which are largely covered by Kiss on 106.1.
It seems to be the latest tactic by Bauer by shaving off the relays to a main station as seen recently with Signal 1 who recently had their relays in East Cheshire and Stafford flipped to GHR while keeping the main high powered transmitter on with DAB as filler.
A small correction, Kiss along with Heart and BBC Radio Norfolk use Stoke Holy Cross.
