David Harris: There is only one local DAB multiplex for Essex, there are no separate services for Southend and Chelmsford on DAB.

I don't get all DAB stations in Chelmsford, no matter what vehicle I use. I've tried re tuning but to no avail. Seems like such a shame considering Chelmsford is the birthplace of radio.

Max: There are four DAB multiplexes that are available in the general Chelmsford area. This isn't to say there aren't places in the city where the signal is poor or non-existent.
Here are the four multiplexes with their channel number so you can scan the specific channels:
BBC National: 12B
Digital One: 11D
Sound Digital: 11A
Essex: 12D
The BBC National, Digital One and Sound Digital multiplexes are transmitted from Danbury (Bakers Lane) and the Essex multiplex is from Bakers Wood. If you find you can't tune to any of the multiplexes, try again on higher ground, perhaps nearer the transmitter. Once you have the radio tuned, then don't retune if you find you loose the signal.
