Many thanks to SWLing Post reader, Marc, who shares this news from Radio France.
The article (in French) notes that as of midnight on December 31, 2015, Radio France will cease all mediumwave broadcasts permanently. Up to this point, Radio France's mediumwave transmitters have broadcast France Info, France bleu RCFM and France Bleu Elsass.
The article notes that regions previously within the broadcast footprint of their mediumwave transmissions are now serviced via FM and/or online streaming.
