WRN welcomes the launch of the Sky Gnome

WRN, one of the UK's leading satellite radio transmission providers, today welcomed the launch of the Sky Gnome, the innovative portable and wireless device that will enable customers to listen to Sky around the home, including the 80 free to air radio stations available on Sky digital

Richard Jacobs, WRN’s Business Development Manager said: "This is great news for all radio stations on Sky digital because it frees them up from the set top box and allows listeners to tune in around the house and even in the garden. With over 80 radio stations on Sky digital, the Sky Gnome offers people the biggest choice of digital radio in the UK."

WRN currently uplinks almost 1 in 3 of the non-BBC radio stations available on Sky Digital making it the UK’s number 1 independent satellite transmission provider for stations on the UK’s number 1 satellite platform. Radio stations using WRN to get onto Sky digital include Virgin Radio, RTE, EWTN, Trans World Radio, Pulse Unsigned, Radio London, Radio Caroline, Gaydar Radio, Desi Radio, Spectrum Radio, Raaj Radio and Amrit Bani. WRN’s own international news and current affairs station is on Sky Digital channel 872 and the time share channels On Air (channel 938) and RADIO (934).
