[The BBC blog said that 18 transmitters are to be closed so there is one 
further site yet to be identified
– possible another of the R Wales relays or a second R Cumbria frequency.

The stations which will no longer be transmitted on MW are:
·             Three Counties Radio (3CR)  [630 / 1161 kHz]
·             Radio Merseyside [1485 kHz]
·             Radio Newcastle  [1458 kHz]
·             Radio Solent (for Dorset) [1359 kHz]
·             Radio Solent [999 kHz]
·             Radio Cornwall [630 / 657 kHz]
·             Radio York [1260 / 666 kHz]
In addition, the following stations will have reduced MW coverage:

Radio Scotland  -  Areas in and around both Aberdeen and Kirkcudbright
            [Redmoss 810 kHz / Dumfries 585 kHz]

Radio Wales  -   Tywyn, Forden and Llandrindod Wells transmitter areas
            [Twyen 882 kHz, Forden 882 kHz, Llandrindod Wells 1125 kHz]

Radio Cumbria - Areas in and around Whitehaven  [1458 kHz]
