Radio 4 Extra

Does anyone know how I can get the above on a small FM radio please.
Spent ages looking what MHz it's broadcast on with no luck.
Thanks.

As far as I'm aware it isn't on FM, only DAB.

From Wiki

The station is broadcast nationally on digital radio – via the BBC National DAB multiplex – and online via BBC Sounds and other services such as Radioplayer. It is also available on a number of digital television platforms; Freeview, Virgin Media, Freesat and Sky.

Captain is correct, ferlew. You might use this to check if DAB radio is available where you live:
Digital Radio UK - just pop in your post code and it will advise you. I would post a link for you but they always fail me now, sorry. Small Dab radios are relatively inexpensive :)

Thank you Captain and Choux.
I'll look out for a reasonable priced DAB one, it's only for when I sit outside in the garden and knit.

Sounds lovely :)

In 2022 the BBC said they were going to shut it down.

From Wikipedia:

On 26 May 2022, as part of planned cuts and streamlining with a greater focus on digital, the BBC announced plans to discontinue Radio 4 Extra as a broadcast station.

 

As it hasn't disappeared 2 years later, perhaps they changed their minds.

 

You don't have to buy a DAB radio, you can listen on BBC Sounds.

I'd make sure that the radio is DAB+. This is an upgraded version of DAB.
