bbc radio in wexford

Anyone know off hand the FM frequencies to try for bbc radio 1 and 2 in wexford?

BBC Radio one 98.3

You should find BBC radio 2 anywhere in the range 88 to 92 fm from various tx's in Wales.
The only BBC radio frequency that I would listen to regularally would be 98.3

If you're interested you will find radio 4 on 103.9 and possibly 103.6.
This all depends on your location and topography( A nice posh word for the terrain )

Hi

It depends where in Wexford you are, if like Earthman, you're north of the county then Blaenplwyf is where you'll be receivng from... Radio 1 is 98.3 and Radio 2 is 88.7 Radio 4 is 104.0 Radio Wales 95.3.

If you're more Wexford Town and south then you'll more than likely pick up Haverfordwest - although a PLL tuner is best (not one with an analogue dial) because these frequencies are closely situated to those of Mount Leinster.

Radio 1 98.9
Radio 2 89.3
Radio 3 91.5
Radio 4 104.9
Radio Wales 95.9
Radio Cymru 93.7

There is a chance in some parts you'll get Real Radio on 105.7 (Preseli TX) and 106.2 (Fishguard TX) but these don't travel as well due to hilly terrain blocking Preseli from Ireland. Its better around Gorey I think. You can also pick up from Devon during spells of high pressure Radio 2 88.1 and Radio 1 97.7 following the +2.2 mhz rule for all of the other stations.

I always found plugging my tv aerial into the radio helped too!
