"Ultimately what we'd like to do is turn the AM transmitter off and have DAB as the second service for Manx Radio. If you try to buy a radio with AM on it you'll struggle..AM is very expensive, massively expensive especially with electricity prices, it's far more power hungry than DAB."
It's been Manx Radio's policy to turn off AM and replace it with DAB for many years. They've now got the two licenced Isle of Man FM commercial stations to agree to go on the DAB trial. There is a BBC national DAB transmitter at Douglas.

I'm sure the RC management team has spoken to Chris at Manx Radio about this situation.
