Yes, there are a few but disappearing by the day. I guess they all
require very high power and are therefore expensive to run.
I know that RTE (the Irish broadcaster) has been making reassuring
noises about keeping their station on 252kHz going to support the Irish
diaspora in the UK and Europe.
Unfortunately the BBC seems to have totally forgotten why it was that
they became just about the most powerful state regulated monopoly in the
world (even AT&T in its heyday would have killed for the BBC's
government-enforced right to tax pretty much everyone in the UK). I'm
not confident that BBC Radio 4 on 198kHz is long for this world.
