The BBC have announced that they plan to discontinue the radio service on 198 LW in March 2024. 3 longwave transmitters cover all of the UK and the ROI as well as some of western Europe. The shipping forecast will continue with the 2 broadcasts a day on FM and DAB, and will continue to be broadcast on maritime radio. Test Match Special will continue to be broadcast on BBC Radio 5 Live Extra. This year was the last that TMS covered a cricket match on LW.
