Using my original Bush TR130 and using Bandspread I can hear quite clearly Greatest Hits Radio on 1530 most evenings. It comes from their Vicars Lot transmitter which is very close to the Moorside Edge transmitter site.

Despite being in Cambridgeshire i can hear this station on medium wave after dark most nights from what i presume is their transmitter near Sheffield.

I listen to Greatest Hits radio (and its predecessor Pulse 2) on 1530 which, as expected, comes in loud and clear in South Bradford. In the car I normally listen to it on DAB. On long journeys DAB drops out quite quickly but switching to MW brings it back. On one occasion I was still receiving it in Macclesfield.
