Going Dutch
The wick is back on under the 648 medium wave transmitter at Orford Ness. The Dutch news and information network, Radio 1, has got permission from the BBC and Ofcom to use the former World Service frequency for Europe - at least temporarily, after fires damaged two of Radio 1's FM transmitters. It could be on medium wave for some months, which won't be cheap. The Dutch can expect an electricity bill of around £50k a month.

Very expensive broadcasting on Medium Wave or Long Wave, better on FM
