Phill is live this evening 8 til 10 with 'something a little bit different'. Chat, great handpicked tunes (some chosen by you) and local bobs 'n' bits as usual. Looking at the forecast for the next 24 hours or so it might be wise to 'batten down' before it gets dark. It could get very blustery!

106.9FM in north Cheltenham (Bishop’s Cleeve area), 107.1FM around Winchcombe, on smart speakers ‘play Radio Winchcombe’ and online via radiowinchcombe.co.uk (will be on listen again later too).

...as you (probably) know there are various ways to listen to Radio Winchcombe.

You can hear us on a radio dial on our original 107.1FM transmitter, broadcasting to Winchcombe and the flat surrounds; also on 106.9 FM on our north Cheltenham transmitter in the Bishop's Cleeve/Woodmancote area.

With the advent of smart speakers (Alexa, Google, Siri etc.) you can hear us too by giving the (worldwide) command 'play Radio Winchcombe' (very clever!).

You can also listen online via radiowinchcombe.co.uk

Please be aware that currently, due to a Server change, you may have to click the 'speaker or ear' icon on the website, (to listen live or listen again), rather than solely clicking the words 'listen live' or 'listen again'.

Thanks for your loyalty to a truly local Community Station, Radio Winchcombe, covering a swathe of the North Cotswolds.

We hope that the Server issue change is not too confusing though want to be sure that you can continue to easily find local radio - Radio Winchcombe - here in North Gloucestershire.

Phill is live with two hours of just vinyl 8 til 10 tonight! When he says 'just', the memories evoked each Tuesday are wondrous. Tracks from the 50s to 90s and including some Supertramp tonight, for obvious reasons, too.
