The Chinese Firedrake Jammer on SHORTWAVE (also known as FireDragon) is a Commercial AM Broadcast jamming signal that aims to jam specific radio stations in Asia from being received by listeners. It plays the characteristic Chinese folk song "The Firedrake" which runs for an hour duration, the same duration of radio programmes on shortwave.

The jamming signal has been traced to be sourced from Chinasat 6B within the China National Radio (CNR) satellite feed circuits.The satellite relays the jamming music to ground transmitters across China to then transmit on the same frequencies as radio stations that China sees as unfavorable, including (but not limited to) Voice of America, Radio Free Asia, BBC World Service etc. as well as stations based in Taiwan.

BBC Local Radio Medium Wave transmission changes

 BBC Local Radio Medium Wave transmission services in Cumbria, Derby, Gloucestershire, Norfolk and Somerset will close by the end of November 2026. This is the final phase of a switch off process which was announced in 2011 with phased closures in 2018 and 2020.

This means if you currently listen on MW radio, you will need to switch to another way of listening. The good news is that your local BBC radio station, programmes and schedules are not changing.

You can continue listening to the same local BBC radio service through:

• FM radio
• DAB Digital Radio
• BBC Sounds
• Online via the BBC website
• Smart speakers

This change reflects how listening habits have changed over time, with more audiences choosing FM, DAB and digital services. Whichever platform you choose, you'll continue to receive the same local BBC radio programmes and content.

The following information can also be accessed on the phone: 03700 100700
