On the map
Oldham - Hospital is not the strongest signal anywhere the model predicts — it is shown here in place. That is normal for a relay, which fills in inside a main station's area.
Medium wave Medium wave is listed but never predicted. It propagates by ground wave by day and ionospheric skywave by night, and the model used everywhere else on this site — ITU-R P.1812 — starts at 30 MHz and does not describe either. A coverage figure here would be invented, so there isn't one.
Transmitter data is Ofcom's; every dataset and the terms it is used under are listed under sources . Coverage figures are modelled, not measured, and are systematically optimistic .
