BBC Tees - Transmitters

Transmitters

The signal on 95 FM is relatively strong and comes from the 900-foot Bilsdale transmitter on the North York Moors, which transmits the main television signals for Teesside and North Yorkshire, and national radio frequencies, as well as the commercial stations TFM Radio on 96.6 FM, 100-102 Real Radio on 100.7 FM and Capital FM on 106.4 FM. BBC Tees can be heard as far south as Doncaster and the north parts of Lincolnshire and interferes with Radio Lincolnshire on 94.9 FM. The Whitby transmitter also has television, national radio, and the independent station Yorkshire Coast Radio on 103.1 FM. Whitby is actually in North Yorkshire. Radio York's coastal transmitter is at Scarborough. The DAB signals come from the Bauer 11B multiplex at Eston Nab (near the A174 road) and Brusselton (near Shildon between the A68 and A6072).

The station did transmit on medium wave frequency for a while but this was closed down in 1992.

BBC Tees is also available on DAB in Teesside, County Durham and North Yorkshire and online via the station's website.
