Phantom 105.2 now available on NTL/Chorus

SimonMaher · 2008-03-18 23:45:09

Hello all, Phantom 105.2 is now available on UPC Digital Channel 935 in Dublin, Limerick and Galway. Other cities and towns will be available in the coming weeks. Should have the EPG data sorted in the next couple of days. Can I ask people to keep an eye on their channel lists and let me know when it appears in your area?…

Well then you're in for a treat.:D

That's if you're into Rock,Indie,Alternative music.Well at least it's my only station for my fix of what I spent my youth listening to and with what's going on nowadays. Can't beat the late70's into the 80's\90's IMO for the above. Those were the days.:D:D Great to have a station still playing the classic tracks alongside what's out there today.

Yes on the DVR in Dublin, but no EPG info. In fact there is no EPG info for any radio channel on the new EPG. Also noticed RTE 1 Extra has appeared too.

Its nice to have a choice in Dublin - I guess Phantom gives this choice, too many pop stations really.

It's more TV channels they should be adding not more radio stations.

Radio stations use very little bandwidth in fairness. Nothing wrong with adding radio to digital television imo. Can be extremely handy.

Gerard, RTE 1 extra is the "opt out" stuff that has been broadcast on the AM frequencies - generally at weekends.

Thanks all for reports of Phantom on cable, keep them coming. Some responses from new areas coming into studio already. Working on EPG data, should have it sorted next week.

Cheers,
Simon

4 months on and still no sign of EPG data - will this ever be resolved ?
Is it a Phantom or UPC issue ?
