BBC Radio Logos Wanted

I'm looking for the logos of every international, national and regional/local BBC Radio station in sizes more than 600px x 600px

It's unlikely that you'll find this online in the size you're seeking. If you're willing to share *why* you're seeking the logos, it's possible that BBC could provide you with the assets in the appropriate size/resolution. However, they'd probably look at your request all squinty-eyed.

Could you use the font?

Best answer: The font Ceri linked to contains logos for the national stations that are out of date, but you could use the BBC logo and the font Gill Sans to create the logos for the regional stations, they use the format [BBC LOGO] STATION NAME.

For the national stations, Wikipedia has SVG (Scalable Vector Graphic) versions with large PNG copies pre-made:

Radio 1
Radio 2
Radio 3
Radio 4
Radio 5 Live
6 Music

The World Service is similar to the regional stations, but with the BBC logo and the text world service on separate lines, centre-aligned, in a navy box.

You might have better luck if you asked at the TV Forum.
