Do you mean radio frequencies for the circuit staff? Or for the commentary?

If it's for commentary, there is only the BTCC who I think has radio commentary at all of its events, used to be on 1602MW, but not sure if it still is.

The F3/GT events used to have it, but don't think they do anymore.

Don't know of any UK track that has permanent radio commentary.

The BTCC stopped having radio commentary at all it's events a few years ago, but several of the circuits still provide it on an individual basis, usually either on 1602mw as mentioned earlier or 87.7 FM depending on the circuit.

When I headed out to the GP loop at Brands last weekend I switched the radio on the mobile phone and was rather pleased that they were broadcasting on the default frequency of 87.7 biggrin

Radio Knockhill Broadcasts on 1602 MW and is just what you'd hear on the Paddock PA - music, chat and commentary during races. Doesn't change on visiting events such as BTCC although the voices might!

87.7!

Cheers, that's the one.

I don't usually take a radio with me but I just brought a new phone with FM radio and MP3.
