Bournemouth One is now available on Freeview Play channel 277, in addition to DAB digital radio and smart speakers.
This expansion allows listeners with compatible Freeview Play or Freely smart TVs to tune in directly via their television sets in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, along with parts of Wiltshire and West Sussex.
Your local commercial radio is part of the UK Radio Portal, which aggregates various radio stations, making them available on Freeview channel 277, Freely channel 566, and Amazon Fire TV Sticks.
This service utilizes Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV (HbbTV) technology to deliver internet-streamed radio content through the Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) network.
Station co-founder Sophie Greenwood: “As a truly digital-first radio station, it’s only natural we are available on as many digital platforms as possible, and radio on the TV is another great place to experience the best songs on the radio for offices, shops and homes.
“We’re also excited to be offering a new way for local businesses to get their message out to our growing audience and would love to chat with any company looking to partner with their local commercial radio station, via our website at BournemouthOne.com.”
To access Bournemouth One via Freeview, viewers need a compatible smart TV or set-top box connected to both a broadband internet connection and a UK DTT aerial.
