New Radio channels added in Waterford

    I have just noticed that we have had a number of new radio channels added to our digital packs down here. I suppose it just to bring us in line with Dublin's line up. The only problem is none of them actually work down here.

    The new channels are as follows

    930 FM104
    931 98FM
    932 NEWSTALK 106
    933 COUNTRY MIX
    934 SPIN 1038

    Whats the point in putting them on our EPG if they are not going to broadcast them for us?

    Hello Mike.

    I've just checked my FM channels (I have my HiFi plugged into the wall socket) and they're all on air. Is it digital ones you're talking about?


  • Moderators, Regional South East Moderators Posts: 9,075 Mod ✭✭✭✭Aquos76


    Ah ffs, they have now just removed all the above extra radio stations. They were here up to yesterday. Our Channel number has dropped back from 184 back to 178 here in Waterford

    Intersting, the bbc fivelive was on-air then off-air then reappeared in the last few hours. They've been tinkering again.

    Well surprise surprise, they are back on again down here in Waterford. We are again back up to 184 channels. Looks like Mike was spot on about them doing some tweaking about with the radio channels today

    I somtimes think the software is so badly programmed it simply switches channels on and off at random.

    You may actually have a point here Mike. Just now I was here listening to 2fm on channel 902 and it just stopped broadcasting. Scan through a couple more radio channels and they are also blank. So the next step is Help and Yellow button trick to do a reset and low and behold we are gone back to the 178 number of channels yet again.

    This is really starting to get very annoying.

    Ah I give up. Its now back again. This is really starting to take the piss.
