Just a reminder that Amber Radio is continuing to broadcast Classic Hits 24 hours a day on smart-speaker, Radioplayer, MyTuner, and on the amber.radio website. We will let you know about further developments when we can.

Many thanks for all your kind messages that have come in since yesterday's news on this FB page, through the website and on email. We really appreciate the support.
UPDATE: The good news is that it's intended to run a temporary "holding" service on our on-line outputs, including smart-speaker, from midnight when the DAB signal is due to go off. Normal 'live' programmes will also remain suspended from tomorrow morning.
We hope to bring you further information in due course.

Some disappointing news.🥲
We regret to say that Amber Radio will be closing down on Saturday night.
It's been great to be back on the airwaves on DAB in Norfolk and North Suffolk and also on-line, further afield.
After a year on-air, our funds, as a mainly voluntary group, are now unfortunately insufficient to continue in the current set-up and circumstances.
All of us at Amber have been really grateful for the welcome, warm messages and strong support shown by people in the area.
We hope that you have enjoyed listening again to really local radio.
We would love to continue, but that's not possible at this time. We can add though that we are looking at other possible options for the future and so hopefully, more about that in due course.
Thanks to all of you listening who discovered the station over the weeks since the end of August last year and for the involvement of our sponsors and advertisers, especially Busseys and Smith & Pinching, who've stayed with us from day one.
Finally, thanks to all the members of our presentation and support team, who joined in with this initiative to bring back local radio.

Huge credit to all involved with the East Coast Truckers children’s convoy on Bank Holiday Sunday (Aug 25th) - so many giving up their free time for such a brilliant day out (including the police outriders).

Check it out – along with a whole host of events – on the community page of our website at www.amber.radio

And, of course, don’t forget to listen for local events on air.

Apologies for our loss of service on DAB in Norfolk today. Arqiva our service provider are aware and their engineers are working on a fix. In the meantime you can tune in via Radioplayer, Alexa or via our website amber.radio

New listeners keep finding us and they're enjoying the sound of Amber Radio,
with great music and the local news and information that you need.
Take, for example, a new "recruit", David Hill whom we heard from this week:

"I can't think why I've only just found Amber Radio. Brilliant music.
Wonderful to hear the brilliant Rob Chandler back on air again. He's
sounding just as good as he did at Broadland and Norwich (I remember him
well from working there at the same time).
Wishing Amber every success."

Heads up to another local band making waves currently. They're the High Points whose song, Taking My Time has been used in an ad by a big burger chain for American tv..
Watch out for them at gigs in the area including at Epic House in Norwich in August and you can hear the song now and then on Amber.
