    Will it ever match the old one?

    No!

    I'm gonna be pedantic here (take note Mike :D), Radio Nova is not back. There is no direct lineage to the ownership of the original station. Therefor, it is only a copy of the 1980's station. A pretender, if you wish.

    To further the pedantary, Big D, Radio Dublin and ARD were all on FM, IIRC. Indeed ARD put out a fine signal across on around 99.9 or 100 at that time.

    I understand Chris Careys widow is unhappy that the name is being used in the context of a Dublin station.

    We will see if they try to copy original logos and signiture tunes.

    Radio Nova was alsoa popular name for a radio station abroad long before Chris Cary took it on.

    Yes, abroad.......


    Take a look at their Facebook page to see just how similar their logo is to the original.

    100.3 is in use by a pirate at the moment, Galaxy I think.

    I actually thought about this yesterday, I'm not surprised.

    Tests have been live for the past few days. Shows up as NOVA on RDS. They also have a website up at http://www.nova.ie/ - the logo is extremely similar to the original.
