Radiocommunications Agency Netherlands has published a revised list of temporary FM transmitters in the Netherlands to replace the transmissions from Hoogersmilde following the mast collapse two weeks ago. Eight stations are now broadcasting from the emergency mast at Assen, but coverage is not as extensive as from Hoogersmilde. In addition, all signals from the Lopik transmitter site are being radiated with reduced power until the cause of the fire there has been definitively established. That means there are still some areas of the Netherlands where FM reception is not optimal. Further developments are expected shortly.

If ever there was a press release screaming to have a map with it, it is this one. May be they should ring the Guardian. http://www.guardian.co.uk/news/datablog/2011/jul/28/data-journalism?CMP=twt_fd

Not only that, but the list misses AM.
Radio 1 is on 747, Radio 5 is on 1251 in Limburg.

That’s because the story, and the list to which it refers, is specifically about FM transmitters
The situation on mediumwave is expected to change within the next few days. As soon as it does, I will publish information here.
