BBC Hereford and Worcester

Currently broadcasting from Hylton Road Studios in Worcester, with another office next to the Green Dragon Hotel in Broad Street, it's launch goes back to 14th February 1989.

 

Today, it operates on 104, 104.6 (Kidderminster) & 94.7FM, and it is now also available on 738, 1104, & more recently 1584 kHz AM, the latter courtesy of a 300 Watt transmitter based at Woofferton near Ludlow, which came on-line in March 2003 BBC Radio Shropshire opened two new FM transmitters just prior, and the technical bods decided on a switch due to listeners in the North of Herefordshire experiencing difficulties in hearing the service.

This was a considerable about turn, this being down to the fact that there used to be an AM Hereford transmitter on 819, but this was closed quite some time ago.
