MW Circle Facebook-ryhmästä: So, following on from my last post, is medium wave really dead - or is new life being breathed into it? Taking ONLY the UK and Ireland, here's what has happened to the band in the past 10 years:- CLOSED on Medium Wave but available on other platforms:- Celtic Music Radio 1530 Khz (Glasgow) – moved to FM and was available on DAB on a trial multiplex. Radio nan Gaidheal 990 Khz (Aberdeen) – remains on FM, DAB, Freeview, cable and satellite. Nobody noticed it had closed on Medium Wave. This is a minority language service, spoken by just 1% of the Scottish population - even fewer than 1% in the Aberdeen area. BBC Radio Bristol 1548 Khz (Bristol) – remains on FM, DAB and Freeview, transmitter site sold for development. Smooth Radio 1260 Khz (Bristol) - remains on DAB, transmitter site sold for development. RTE Radio 1 567, 729 Khz (Ireland) – remains on FM, DAB, satellite and longwave. CLOSED on MW. Full station closure and/or MW transmitter fell silent and was eventually taken over with a new service:- Fame 1521 1521 Khz (Reigate) - closed Radio Maldwyn / Radio Hafren 756 Khz (Newtown, Wales) - closed Sunshine / Classic Hits 954, 1530 Khz (Hereford & Wocester) - closed Valleys Radio 990 Khz, 1116 Khz (Aberdare) - closed Forest Of Dean Community Radio 1503, 1521 Khz (Forest Of Dean) - closed Fresh Radio 936 Khz (Hawes) – closed MW transmitter when station taken over on its FM transmitters by a station in Harrogate (Stray FM). Transmitter re-instated with a new service (Dales Radio) Sound Radio 1503 Khz (London) - closed. Transmitter re-instated with a new service (Betar Bangla) London Turkish Radio 1584 Khz (London) - closed. Transmitter re-instated with a new service (Panjab Radio) OPENED Dales Radio 936 Khz (Hawes) - using former transmitter of Fresh Radio. Betar Bangla 1503 Khz (London) - using former transmitter of Sound Radio Panjab Radio 1584 Khz (London) - using former transmitter of London Turkish Radio Radio Warrington 1332 Khz (Warrington) Flame Christian Community Radio (Wirral) Desi Radio 1602 Khz (London) Spirit Radio 549 Khz (Ireland) Akash Radio 1323 Khz (Leeds) Bradford Asian Radio 1413 Khz (Bradford) Radio Panj 1521 Khz (Coventry) Heritage Radio 1602 Khz (Manchester) PROPOSED Radio Caroline 648 Khz (Suffolk) Ark AM 1530 Khz (Glasgow) – using former Celtic Music Radio site Carillon Wellbeing Radio (Loughborough) Radio Ninesprings Radio Seerah So the reality is that 5 radio stations have closed only their medium wave transmitters but have continued to broadcast on other platforms, mainly FM. Another 5 stations closed altogether and their transmitters fell silent, possibly forever. 3 services closed and their transmitters fell silent for a short while until 3 new services took over. 8 new services have opened, as new stations (or previously as internet only stations), with new transmitters. 5 new medium services are proposed. __._,_.___ ------------------------------ Posted by: Mauno Ritola <mauno.rit...@gmail.com> ------------------------------ Reply via web post <https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/SDXL-AM/conversations/messages/1119;_ylc=X3oDMTJxb2x0YjYyBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzkyMDA2MTMwBGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTA2MjI4MARtc2dJZAMxMTE5BHNlYwNmdHIEc2xrA3JwbHkEc3RpbWUDMTQ5ODk4OTE3Mw--?act=reply&messageNum=1119> • Reply to sender <mauno.rit...@gmail.com?subject=Re%3A%20Brittein%20saarten%20MW-tilannekatsaus> • Reply to group <sdxl...@yahoogroups.com?subject=Re%3A%20Brittein%20saarten%20MW-tilannekatsaus> • Start a New Topic <https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/SDXL-AM/conversations/newtopic;_ylc=X3oDMTJmcTMwZm9jBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzkyMDA2MTMwBGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTA2MjI4MARzZWMDZnRyBHNsawNudHBjBHN0aW1lAzE0OTg5ODkxNzM-> • Messages in this topic <https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/SDXL-AM/conversations/topics/1119;_ylc=X3oDMTM1ZDc2YzQ5BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzkyMDA2MTMwBGdycHNwSWQDMTcwNTA2MjI4MARtc2dJZAMxMTE5BHNlYwNmdHIEc2xrA3Z0cGMEc3RpbWUDMTQ5ODk4OTE3MwR0cGNJZAMxMTE5> (1) ------------------------------ Have you tried the highest rated email app? <https://yho.com/1wwmgg> With 4.5 stars in iTunes, the Yahoo Mail app is the highest rated email app on the market.
