Can anyone please tell me the freeview number for radio Wales? It tells me online that it is 719 but when I enter that number I get Radio Leeds. I have just updated the channels on my TV.
Thank you. Hollytree

When you updated did you simply search for new channels or restart from scratch ? If the former sometimes an existing channel has grabbed the number required by one just found, and so the Freeview box has to reassign an new (usually much higher) number. Make sure you reset to factory settings or search from new, or some such menu option.

I think it might depend on your location/strongest signal,
I just tried 719, I'm near Whitstable,
I got BBC Radio Kent.
If you are getting Radio Leeds surely you will be outside the area for Radio Wales, won't you?

I have just checked our TV and can get neither so I presume it is a regional thing.

You may have to get Radio Wales on line.

Thank you everyone. I did enter the changes from scratch so can only assume I am not in the right area.
If you have a Smart TV, Radio Wales is on iPlayer.
If you have a Tablet or SmartPhone, the BBC IPlayer Radio App also has it.

With the list I gave you (@ 1543) can you not do a 'Manual Tune of one Channel to try 720, the second listed for Wales?
