Which ones, I've never found anything that is ?

Anyone know how the mobile phone service in the Channel Tunnel is
engineered ?

Only seems to work on the UK-bound bore, but all three of the French
networks are there, all with 3G. Signal lasts as far as the UK tunnel
exit.

Nothing going the other way, presumably VF, O2, and/or EE have been
invited to provide a service ?

In the Hatfield tunnel you can get radios 2, 3 and 4. BBC London 94.9 is
not provided.

It's outside the target service area of BBC London. Should be BBC 3CR, but I
rarely go there, so I wouldn't know.

3CR is a lousy signal down here in SW Herts, they ought to put a relay
at Brookmans Park, better still put it on DAB. I listen to it using internet
radio

I think 3CR is leaky coaxed down the Hatfield tunnel, i'll check next time
i use the tunnel
