Advantages: Local

Disadvantages: Music Repeated ALL the time, Adverts, 'Asian Beat'

2BR - The best music and more. Thats the slogan. Mmm. Maybe they do play the best music and more - but i certainly havnt heard it!

The best thing is that you get all the local news - by newsreaders that try to be funny, but it doesnt work.

The music is repeated ever 2 - ish hours, which gets VERY annoying when you have to listen to 2BR all day. In every link the DJs (or Presenters as they like to be called) ALWAYS, without fail say, That was ***** with **** on 99.8fm, 2BR, the best music and more for Burnley, Hyndburn and Pendle. Why not just say 2BR?

They think that mixing a song from the 60s with something like Kylie sounds good too - they must do, they do it all the time!

Talking of music, the playlist is almost non-existant! About 10 songs altogether - which get played again and again.

There are adverts nearly all the time - two - 5 minute 'chunks', and a 60 second advert at the Newsbeats.

The DJ's, sorry, 'Presenters' are all really really dull! In the morning you are awoken by a presenter that sounds like he has only just woke up himself. In the morning you want a DJ thats lively like Sara Cox, she gets you out of bed, unlike 2BR when they put you to sleep again!

During the afternoon, we have possibly the worst DJ in the country! I can't write all the things that he is useless at because I'll be here all day! He is the worst for telling us what radio station I was listing to (see 3rd paragraph). He spends most of the time during a link telling us how great 2BR is. Yeah right!

2BR has to be the worst local radio station in the UK! I have been listing to other local radio stations as I really cannot listen to 2BR
