The transmitters seem to be operational round the clock with recordings of the new presenters introducing themselves. The two high power synchronous networks on 1053 and 1089kHz are on, supplemented by low power relays in Newcastle (1071kHz), Liverpool, Fareham and Torbay (all three on 1107kHz). Thus ends a period of good interference free long distance reception on 1050 and 1090kHz; this winter rarely heard stations in Washington, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Ontario have been heard in the UK on these channels.
