Frequently asked questions about 45 Radio live
No — 45 Radio broadcasts over the internet only, so there is no frequency to find on a set. That is a deliberate trade: an online station skips the cost of a broadcast licence and reaches the whole country from day one, but it needs a connection at the listener's end. Press play above and it runs in the browser.
Because digital radio made it possible. Once DAB and streaming removed the scarcity of frequencies, broadcasters could split a general audience into single decades, and it turned out a great many people wanted exactly one decade rather than a mix.
The National page on this site lists every station in the directory broadcasting there, with its frequency and format, which is the quickest way to compare 45 Radio against the others nearby.
Usually the connection rather than the station: streaming needs a steady flow and any dip interrupts it. Reloading the page fixes most cases; switching network or closing other tabs handles the rest.
Nothing. Radio in the UK is free at the point of listening, and this page simply carries the live feed as broadcast.
