Default Re: Medium Wave Transmitter Closures.

Despite the low powers used by most of these local stations they still covered the ground well. The best example of this is BBC R Hereford and Worcester's transmitter at Worcester on 738 KHz which only uses 38 watts of power.
A lot of it is down to the design of the aerial and the location of the aerial site. This signal can be heard reasonably clearly during the day in the Bristol and Bath area.
