*For example Time FM 106.8 from Shooters Hill in SE London which still
broadcasts out to Dartford, Swanley and beyond but is now just called
"South East London's Time 106.8". They dropped "NW Kent" from the Jingles
and now never mention it despite quoting the "South East London" phrase
every 10 seconds. I can't describe how annoying it is to be described as
part of SE London when you don't want to be, so now I just don't listen
anymore.


That is a strange reason to not listen to a radio station I must say. It may
be annoying to you but I guess most listeners won't give a monkeys.

If you look at their MCA map
http://www.ofcom.org.uk/static/radiolicensing/mcamaps/al040.pdf

you'll see that it is intended to reach only the edges of Swanley and
Dartford. Looking at the Greater London boundary more than 90% of their MCA
is indeed Greater London, so you can understand why they removed references
to Kent.
