[HCDX] BBC Short Wave Changes



Short Wave Changes 

BBC World Service has changed its shortwave
transmissions in some parts of the world, in line with
listener trends in radio. 
Increasing numbers of people around the world are
choosing to listen to radio on a range of other
platforms including FM, satellite and online, with
fewer listening on shortwave.

Please note broadcasts in English to Eastern and
Central Europe on shortwave have stopped. 

English shortwave broadcasts to Southern Europe have
been reduced to 12 hours a day and Arabic language
shortwave broadcasts to the Middle East have been
reduced to 14 hours.

In both cases the shortwave listening times of early
morning and evening have been retained. 

This will be a loss to some listeners but there are a
number of alternative ways of hearing BBC programmes. 

For more information on how these changes affect
Europe and the Middle East, and information on
alternative ways of listening, follow the relevant
