BBC Radio Cornwall on MW went on reduced power about 10-15 mins into David White's Golden Hour this morning (and it was 1977

) so I switched off. A hour or so later when I switched back on there was a message on repeat saying it's closing (announcement date) down.

It's a bit of a pain now as around 90-95 % of my radios are LW/MW only, absolute went a while ago and now Radio Cornwall, there isn't really anything worth listening to on MW anymore
