    @mattblaze@federate.social Sadly, the Irish AM LW transmitter was shut down in 2023. I see there is a plan to shut down the BBC Radio 4 on LW in the UK, but there seems to efforts to stall that.

      @dwmalone@mastodon.ie Yeah, the BBC station has been “about to go off the air” for at least 10 years now. You can pick it up on the east coast of the US on winter nights sometimes.

        @mattblaze@federate.social I keep meaning to write something to decode the phase modulated signal on top of the audio, but I’ve never got around to it. Maybe they’ll delay it long enough for me to retire and have enough time to try…
