Iceland is still on Long Wave. I was listening to both their outlets on 189 and 207 last night. Reasonably clear and playing some nice music.
As well as those already mentioned, other stations still running and can be picked up on a regular basis in the UK are Romania on 153 which can be heard well every evening and plays some crazy local music, Allouis France on 162 now just broadcasting a silent carrier, Poland on 225, again can be heard most evenings with a mix of Polish speech and music and from the Czech Republic on 270 from their historic Topolna site broadcasting their main radio programme. Occasionally from Morocco with a mix of French/Arabic speech and music is Medi 1 from the Nador site on 171, this one is a weak signal at best when it can be heard. The other historic station Kalundborg.on 243 is still used but only a few times a day for news, weather and shipping forecasts.
