Can I listen to Radio 2 outside the UK?
You can listen to Radio 2 online anywhere in the world, but you will not be able to pick up BBC stations broadcasting on FM and DAB very far from UK shores. They are funded by the UK licence fee and the BBC is not permitted to re-broadcast them from other countries.
