I'm looking for a live radio station, in the West Midlands at around 3 to 6 am.
Traffic and travel information a welcome bonus.
Chatty presenter - male or female doesn't matter
Live - with time checks and interaction with the audience,
MOR music, not necessarily 'old' but not Radio 1.
Radio 2 is recorded until 5am, then it's Vanessa Feltz, who I can't stand
Radio 4 is worthy World Service until about 0530
Radio WM is Five Live until 5am and then it's a lame duck who drives me up the wall.
Free Radio is on automatic, with recorded intros and little else but track after track and adverts
Ditto Greatest Hits - minimal 'DJ' input
Hits Radio - same
As most radio shows become downloadable podcasts, the time checks have disappeared
I'm stuck
I like listening to music, but can lull myself to sleep if the noise doesn't break up the music with human input.
I like news and current affairs, but Times and LBC are too London-centric.
