BBC Radio Ulster is a BBC Northern Ireland Radio station based in Belfast. It has a range of programmes including news and music shows. It was founded in January 1975, replacing what had been an opt-out of BBC Radio 4 (previously the Home Service). An opt-out of the station exists in the north-west of the region called BBC Radio Foyle. This carries alternate programming and news for most of the time between 7am and 5pm weekdays and a few hours at the weekend. The station is also now broadcast on DAB Digital Radio, digital television and the internet.
