Only on match days! It might seem interminable to some, but test matches only last five days if they go the distance. Test Match Special is one of Radio Four's very best offerings - even for people who don't particularly like cricket.

Long Wave is still functioning but during the summer months it is turned over to cricket.

Or get a DAB Digital Radio, I hear they are selling them for £45 in Argos now.

JTT, Why not contact the BBC? The radio homepage is http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/.

Now mostly on FM. The only way I can listen to it here in China is on my broadband connection.

I used to listen to BBC Radio 4 on long wave - or rather on the AM band in the car - but it seems to have disappeared. What's happened? (I'm in Ireland, by the way.)
