Receiving both Power on 92.1 and Club on 92(an invitation to raid).3 in Dublin.

Reggae station continues on 87.6 and NRG on 88.1, no sign of Tonic or Energy AM

92.3 is BBC Radio 3 from Divis which is also the relay frequency on the UPC network.

Galaxy/Club is on fairly high power and will cause interferance to BBC 3 - historically this has led to a phone call and/or a raid.

davebrowntec

club/galaxy they should maybe move to 94.3 put if
they are getting in to dublin that might be not good
idea the band is so full now.
not like in the 80s or 90s
how long are they using 92

barryc2010

Is it Trinity? Only listened for a few minutes and all I got was that it was the first time back on the air in 2 years but no ident ! Bizzare !

Sounds exactly like a college station, to be honest.

barryc2010

nrg 88.1 audio sounds well signal is sill a little weak though
base 99.5 is back but very weak signal over dublin
dance station on 92.1 but no college station
107.1 tonik is back to but signal to is not so good
no high power pirate stations on any more
with a professional outfit maybe to much money
to be loss or to be taking from comreg

my top 4 professional pirate stations of all time

energy 106.6 over 25k to put it on air in 98
K.I.C fm 104.0 over 40k to put it on air in 2001
kiss fm 103.7 belfast 1988
nova 1980 to 1986

all of the stations above had top of the range transmitting equipment big mast,s with a plentiful amount of antenna,s and plenty of money pump,t into them.its a far cry from whats on air today,stations calling them selfs stations shoe box of transmitters cheap antennas cheap structures i won't say all have been but the majority have over the last 10 years,there was 1 actually that comes to mind that where pretty good set up energy94 they had a good crew behind them.

Not sure as I haven't been in Cork in a while but as I say 104.9 was only R4 today. Nothing anywhere else in the bad either

I can say 100% Kiss Fm (as we know it ) is gone! Most of the gear is sold,TX was stripped out etc. Owner is envolved in other projects, non pirate radio realated.

Temp station Betania back on 97.3 in Dublin

davebrowntec

paul willison 91.6 easy radio don't get me wrong paul i do love the station do listen in when i get the chance,its just i was listing last weekend at liffy vally and you where finishing a show about 3.40 and then you,s just went off air.
sometimes you,s are on air and other times you,s are off stay cool don't get to excited paul.regarding your antenna mast i see on your website i don't know what radio tech guy set it up or maybe it was your self but your 2 label antenna ,s are meant to be 6 foot a part from center you have them 2 close and you have them pointing at trees its amazing you are getting out the way you are,but it is a good site up there where kick fm used to be.just one more thing before i head off you need to tweak up your volume on your bbp she,s a little low,have a good day mate

barryc2010

Ah dave go easy not everyone gets it perfect. Heres two good examples of a two stack and a four bay stack. And I came across an old diagram I had in the shed. I put plenty of two stacks and four stacks up in the 90s for pirate stations, Once you get them close enough they will do, but if you get them spot on you will get great results and again if it has a clear site with no trees surrounding it or any terrain in the way and three key facts the height of the mast the height of the site and power.

Here is the list of legit temporary stations:

Looks like the drive in movie did not have a licence, and they were using 107.8, unless they got a licence under some other system?
