Notes

Galaxy 102 will increase from 0.5kw to 1kw on 22nd November 2004 and will also change from vertical to mixed polarisation.

Lakeland Radio have recently swapped their frequencies around so that 100.1 is now used at Windermere, and 100.8 is now used at Kendal. This was due to interference from Classic FM from Sutton Coldfield.
