It is also available in areas of [[North Devon]], across the [[Bristol Channel|Severn Estuary]] (where there is no interference from local station [[Lantern FM]] on 96.2 MHz), although the station's official coverage area and on-air branding does not acknowledge this. The station's output cannot be heard towards South East Wales.
