I'm sure you are aware of this, but just to clarify for others, there are no R5 transmitters in Oxford or Bedford. Your main 693 signal is probably coming from Droitwich, and your 909 signal is probably a mixture of Brookmans Park and Moorside Edge.

Here in Oxford 909 reception is a bit of a mess after dark because of the Brookmans/Moorside mixture, with a bit of Clevedon thrown in for good measure.
