BBC Radio Shropshire is the BBC Local Radio service for the English county of Shropshire. Launched on 23 April 1985. It originally broadcast on 756 am, and had to change to FM in 1991. The AM broadcasting transmitter and equipment were later sold to the new Radio Maldwyn, based on Newtown, Powys, ready for their launch of 'The Magic 756' in 1993.
The station now broadcasts from its studios in Shrewsbury on 96 (for central and north Shropshire), 90 (Church Stretton), 95 (in Ludlow), 104.1 (in Clun) FM and DAB (digital radio). The radio service also had secondary broadcast premises in Telford.
The 96FM signal from The Wrekin is the strongest, and can be heard from outside the county, especially along the M5 and M6 near Birmingham, as well as into western Staffordshire, southern Cheshire and Wrexham.
