- 2 January: 2140 UTC: 1413 kHz: "Through several stations, the clearest broadcast I hear is, I believe, Premier Christian Radio via West London (Heathrow) or East London (Dartford Marshes) with 0.5 kW. I believe music and speech in English could be BBC Radio Gloucestershire.
"Premier Christian Radio has female preacher with readings from the Bible.
"BBC Radio Gloucestershire has male host, telephone number (0845), music from Rod Stewart ('Downtown Train') and Michael Jackson 'Rock With You'.
"Female preacher still strong, lost Gloucestershire to Spanish programmes.
"Both Premier Christian and BBC Gloucestershire logged."
