    Its being lashed out by a foreign station at night, bad frequency 567 be more suitable, 252 Lw is suffering same at night, a frequency chance is required for both signals.

    Spirit radio is a farce. The bai gave them a licence on the basis of them having a 100kw mw site in the midlands instead they rent an ex piriate rig in Monaghan and run it at the lowest power possible.

    Spirit was originally licensed as an AM only station, but with a few low power FM fill-ins.

    Not only do they not have the promised high power AM transmitter, they now have a network of medium power FMs, plus a low power AM, so in fact they are an FM station.

    Totally against their original licence, but they appear to be allowed to get away with doing anything they like, because God is involved.

    I can't see any other reason they're allowed to break or bend all the rules.

    They are also obliged by their original licence to have some form of audience monitoring. They pulled out of the JNLR just before their first book and have not provided any figures since, let alone ones arguable as equivalent.

    Licence should be pulled. First of many that need to go as in breach, though.
