Thanks for doing these interviews Phil, the more I hear the more encouraged I am. Almost too good to be true, which in turn worries me. Don’t know if I’m being naive or fearing we may let a massive life line slip through our grasp????
I want to listen to Phil’s dulcet tones, I live outside transmission area, I pay my BBC licence fee, don’t see why I should have to pay twice. Any techie kids on here help me trick the system so I get 3CR on dab?

They split the frequencies, if we are on fm we might not be on Dab. The Beeb don't buy the internet streaming rights so you won't get it on their website either.
So, the main broadcast usually starts at 2pm on a Saturday (earlier today because of Stevenage game KO 12pm) and the first hour of build up around the grounds is broadcast on all BBC3CR frequencies (103.8, 95.5, 98, DAB and online).
Just before KO at 3pm the frequencies split to each individual game. Online cannot carry a live EFL match commentary due to licensing restrictions put in place by the EFL. If Borehamwood are playing, they are usually on 3CR online.
HT is all on one frequency around the grounds and FT until 6pm it’s back on all frequencies for match reports, interviews and fan interaction.
I’m my opinion, having every WW game on 98FM makes the most sense as this frequency covers the High Wycombe area but I appreciate that there will never be a solution that pleases everybody.
Overall coverage of WW on 3CR has been improving year on year, not just commentaries but news and discussion too across the station. This can also be enhanced by fans interacting with the station, especially before/after games! Tweet/text/phone in etc.

OK, I'm dying to know @bluntphil, what happened at the end of the Trevor Stroud interview?
Haha. A rickety patio table and parasol nearly took off in a very minor gust of wind...
I was picturing Mr Stroud attacking you. Glad I was wrong.

Must be years since we were last on FM
